CONNECTING THE PHONE LINE
You must keep the receiver connected to an active telephone line (or broadband network
connection) to order Pay-Per-View programs, use all of the DishHOME Interactive
features, or use other services from DISH Network with your remote control.
Note: You may be able to use a wireless modem jack. However, this may not support all
the features of this receiver, such as Caller ID. See www.dishnetwork.com
for compatible
modem products.
Note: If you have a Digital Subscriber Line (DSL), you may have to install a DSL filter
between the receiver’s back panel P
HONE JACK and the telephone wall jack to
successfully connect with DISH Network. You can obtain a filter from your DSL provider.
