You must keep the receiver connected to an active telephone line to order Pay-Per-View
programs, use all of the DishHOME Interactive features, or 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 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 Phone Jack and the telephone wall jack to successfully connect with DISH
Network. You can obtain a filter from your DSL provider.
Phone Line Connection
Run a telephone cable with a standard RJ-11 connector from the receiver’s back panel Phone
Jack to an active telephone connection.
Phone System Setup
You must also 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.
