killing SD tivo phone nag

[VIPERS-PIT]

None on the recievers in my house are hooked up to a phone line. D* told me this was no issue, and it has not been. But the TIVO keeps asking me to dail in for a update. How do I kill this message from coming back?

First, I really am not being a wise ass here, really, but the only way I heard of is to hook it up to a phone line.

well no phone line "exists" in the "service address".

Take it to a neighbor or a relative that has a phone line.

Sorry, thanks for the help, I see you are new here, WELCOME.

You will come to understand what "service address" and "no phone line" means over time.

But I do truly appreciate your tyring to help.

we had a customer come into the store with this problem, we let them hook the recever up to the fax line and it updated. altho as a side note, it took about 4 hrs to update. they only phone they have at their residence is a satellite phone, they did have hookups for the receiver, but with the price of sat phone service, and 4 hrs for the update, i could see why they wanted to find another phone to hook up to.

You really have to use the same phone as on Directv's service address? Didn't know that, if that's the case. Seems I've seen this recommended before. Guess I'll go back to lurking.

Well if I cant turn the call in off in the menu I will live with the nag.

There is no option to turn the message off. It is built in to the unit to call out everyday and if it does not it will let you know, everyday.
