Will it work any faster? and Will D* still be able to access my receiver? I don't want to do anything ilegal.I'm not to worried about PPV ,because I order online ,so I can watch a movie on all my tvs if I chose.I'm mainly trying to drop my land based phone service.
phones are just a ploy for d* to get u to order ppv and access caller id. but from what i understand it doesnt make a difference as far as speed goes. i always suggest to order ppv online their website because this will make all your receivers light up and not just the one when you order with a remote.
It makes NO difference, either to D* OR the receiver. Unless you have a crying need for onscreen caller ID, don't worry about hooking it up to the phone... 
I have E* too and they charge you $5 or $6 if its not. But It worked ,so Thanks guys for the help!
I have been doing it for over a year using at&t voip
HOWEVER.... when I connected my home security system to voip, the provider specified that most security equipment is incompatible with Vonage. She went on to say that there's a law in TX excluding Vonage usage where monitored security/safety equipment is installed. She also said that other VOIP providers do not have the same problems. I think I read earlier this year that Vonage changed their equipment and TX repealed the law, but don't quote me on that.

Yea, we know E*'s stupidity doing that - but thankfully, D* doesn't...
