All a NID is is a point beyond which BellSouth says "It's your problem".
It a new style of connection that does not require as much training to
connect to.  A self-install kit (in theory) should be be a problem. All
it is is a bunch of DSL filters to take the DSL "hiss" out of the
non-DSL lines. So basically, DSL service will be all over the house on
every phone jack. By adding the filter, it takes out the DSL signal and
keeps things like phones with digital answering machines happy.

My house has a huge 6 pair phone line that terminates in my basement at
a series of screw blocks with fuses. The phone co likes the NID outside
the house so they don't have to schedule a time to get in. I don't like
having access to running up my long distance bill outside my house when
I'm not home. :)
