I want to use this router as an access point  but every time I log into the modem it is trying to hook to the dsl ( it is accessing the pnp) which I don't have anymore...How can I back door re-configure this unit?

I found this in the manual:

 

13.6.2.2Disabling DSLATM PORT – Enabling ETHERNET PORT 1To configure the VersaLink so that it uses the WAN Ethernet Port, select ETHERNET PORT 1 from the WANPORT drop-down arrow. By selecting ETHERNET PORT 1, you will disable the VersaLink's DSL transceiver.This will disable the DSL Port and allow the WAN interface to use the WAN Ethernet Port.

If it is not talking to you then you can reset it to defaults:

Hold the reset button on the back panel of the VersaLink gateway for 30 seconds.

Use: admin/password to login after the reset.

It says that some menu items are hidden when certain options are selected so I think you need to reset the modem first.  Hopefully it will then allow you to Enable ETHERNET PORT 1
