I was very happy that our installer placed phone jacks in four room of my home so he could get his full pay. Now I have four new phone jacks.
I can't see any reason I would mind D* knowing what we watched, if they do track that kind of thing.

No landline required ....pro96 said:Hey guys, I am still w/o my HR20-700 as I have not purchased yet. and wanted to know if it's required to have this DVR connected into a landline to update the guide like the old Tivos did..?

I did have mine plugged in and still do, I like the Caller ID feature so I leave it plugged in.

The ones that don't are called non responders. Those cost you $5 each, if you work for an alphabet soup company (HSP, MSP,RSP) or one of their fulfillment contractors.
Everyone has good points but, the thread starter says that he has vonage. I have yet to come accross this scenerio in my work but I have been told that D* recievers will not work with VoIP. Is this true?
Anyone else experiencing phone issues with the HR20-700? I have replaced the HD Tivo with the HR20, that was using the phone jack with no problems, but now when I plug it into the HR20, it prevents me from getting a signal from every phone in the house. I unplug it...& I get a dial tone. Not really a big deal, but would like to use the feature to get caller ID on the HR20. Just wonderin' how the HR20 would prevent me from gettig phone service.
Thanks!

Double check on the back of the receiver where you plugging in your phone line. There are two plugs that look exactly the same: one is phone jack another is ethernet or something like that. Make sure you plug into one that says "phone".
