Broadband Connection and SKY dialback

dil999 · 2004-03-11 16:52:27

I have Sky+ and a mirror sub, so I have both plugged into the phone line. I currently have no issues (Well I haven't received any nasty letters from Sky .) I am planning to get Broadband installed (Probably UTV). Does this have any impact on the digiboxes ability to dial out? Has anybody experienced any problems with PPV?…

getting broadband should not impact your phoneline for the digibox - so long as the other phonelines work you shouldn't have any problems.

Remember though that you will need a DSL filter on any outputs to phones/Sky.

Your broadband supplier will give you a few of these. Eircom gave me 3. That should be plenty depending on how your house is wired.
