Same computer, new phone line, no dial tone



I moved, got another phone line, and using the same computer, same
software, it no longer dials out.  Complains about NO DIAL TONE.  I'm
pretty sure it's a modem problem because cu with a manual atdt1234567
has the same problem.  A phone works fine whether routed thru the
modem card or not, and the NO DIAL TONE error shows up whether the
phone is routed thru the modem card or not connected at all.

I can hear it go off hook very briefly, then NO DIAL TONE.

It's a several year old USR COURIER.

I have an ISDN line for the net connection, so there should be no
problem there.

Could the phone line quality somehow be causing this?  Or does anybody
have any other clues?
