| | | interested in signing up for dishnetwork I am interested in signing up for dish network. I have a few questions.
We already have analogue cable tv so we would like to get this in addition running side by side...
We want to install it for 4 tv's in our home.. What is the best way for this? Order 3 additional boxes???
Will dish network come and install the dish and wiring and boxes???
Also we have only 1 internet telephone here. Someone told me each box will need to call dishnetwork nightly to keep the guide listings up to date... How would this be possible with only 1 phone jack in the house......
I found this dishpronto website.. are they legit?? I'm located in Southern California...
Thanks for your help.......

Call DishStore.NETT on Monday and they will take care of you.
The phoneline does not download the guide data that is sent via the satellite. A phone line is needed for ordering Pay Per View movies. Many of us no longer have home phone lines and have no issues.

Take Scott's advice and call DishNet at 800 807 0837. You'll not be sorry. They'll take care of everything for you. And 4 TVs will be no problem.

If you're keeping cable TV too, make sure you tell the installer not to re-use your orginal cable - and watch him! I told my installer and he said "no problem" but after he was done I realized he did it anyway...

You need to call the office on Monday and order from the Dishstore on the phone.
Its best to speak with one of our agents then getting all the details online.
