ISDN needs a new phone line I believe, among other things, which justifies the usually hefty installation fee. Though i have heard interesting rumours regarding a DIY ISDN installation kit, where you are given everything you need to put an ISDN line in, but no engineer to help you do it.

One for the hardcores and knowitalls methinks...

As I'm the only cretin left awake, I'll try and help you best I can.

1. Have no idea.

2. As IDSN quite often runs in dual channels and all the rest of it, I'd expect that you have to buy an entirely new modem, which go for a reasonable price. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if SR stock them. Ah, here we are mate, a 'INTERNAL ISDN ADAPTER FOR PC' :

That should be what you're looking for.
