You can't have ADSL on either of your 2 lines as BT doesn't supply it
over PBX lines (so it says in the manual but I wouldn't be suprised if
one or two have slipped thru as it's more of a data problem than a
physical problem)...

What if it's a bypass line?

If they are bypass lines they won't have the same numbers.

BT (in their infinite wisdom) will not provide DSL over any numbers
which are multi line working (featureline, featurenet, PBX etc, the only
exception is for single line featurelines & yes they do install them).
There isn't any physical reason it's all down to records/data keeping.
