I had Dish installed (DHA w/ 522 and 311 receivers) just a few days ago and have been doing a bit of additional research. I have found this site and it's related resources to be absolutely phenomenal. Kudos!
From the info I have found here, it seems one can use a DishPVR 508 with Dish Network and not have to pay a monthly DVR fee.
Questions:
1) Is a 508 allowed on a DHA type account (to replace the 311)?
2) Does the 508 have to be permanently connected to a phone line? If so, does it have to be connected to the line that's listed on the account, or the same line as the 522?
The reason I ask question #2 is due to the fact that the phone line in the same room as the 311/508 is a completely separate line from the rest of the house.
Speaking of telephone lines, my 522 is also connected to a different line than the primary telephone # listed on the account. Will this cause a problem?
Thanks for any info you can provide.
