Nearly impossible. I know that the problem can be the other way round, no phone but DSL works. Happend at a site where later was found out that only one of the two incoming phone wires were properly connected. Weird, but obviously you only need one wire for DSL...

The only thing not working at your end that you cannot spot or check is hardware failure in the splitter (that box which splits the incoming signal into phone and DSL) or in the actual DSL modem. Very likely that the problem is there, as the phone is working, so the line to your house should be ok. And that could be fixed by the technician fast, he should have spare units. Let us all hope...
