Connecting a Broadband Internet Connection
Phone System Setup
You must set up the receiver for your telephone system (touch tone or rotary), and set a
telephone number prefix, if you need a prefix to make an outside call.
Note: A prefix is different than an area code.
1 Press MENU, then select System Setup, Installation, and then Phone System.
2 Select the Touch Tone or the Rotary Phone option in the Phone Type list.
3 Select either the No Prefix or the Prefix Code option in the Outside Line Prefix list.
Note: Usually, you need a telephone number prefix only for business installations. For
most residential installations, all you need to do is set the telephone system type. The
default setting of No Prefix will allow correct dialing. If this is the case, select the Save
option to save the above setting, and stop here. If you do need to set a prefix, then instead
of selecting the Save option, go on to step 5.
4 If you selected No Prefix, select Done.
5 If you selected Prefix Code, the receiver highlights the box where you must enter the
exact sequence used when dialing an outside line.
6 Select Done.
CONNECTING A BROADBAND INTERNET CONNECTION
If you have broadband (high-speed) Internet access at home, connect your receiver to
your home network. You can use this connection to order Pay-Per-View movies using your
remote control if you are not able to connect a phone line. It also provides access to
additional content not usually available through your satellite subscription.
Refer to tech.dishnetwork.com
and search for “home networking” for detailed instructions
on making this type of connection.
