I work for a relatively small ISP that provides Qwest DSL services. Unfortunately, in this situation, you are up the perverbial creek.
When Qwest upgraded their DSLAMs to us Discrete Multi-Tone line modulation (DMT) it basically left all users who were switching line service from location to location out in the cold. On the bright side, this only effects users with Cisco 675 and Intel 2100(Cisco 605) CPEs. (The vast majority of their customers)
We have dealt with numerous cusotmers with this issue and so far it doesn't seem like Cisco or Qwest are going to give anyone a break on a new CPE.
Cisco does have a fun little article here that talks about CAP v DMT and the CPE issues.
