Abstract
To secure an ADSL connection to an ADSL transceiver connected to a telephone line to be used also by an associated telephone, the telephone is normally kept disconnected from the telephone line and a predetermined number of bits is allocated to the ADSL connection. Upon an off-hook condition of the telephone in connection with an outgoing call, and upon a presence of a ringing signal on the telephone line or an off-hook condition of the telephone in connection with an incoming call, a predetermined lower number of bits is allocated to the ADSL connection before the telephone is connected to the telephone line.
