D* still wants the phone line connected if you order PPV. The box will dial in and transmit any charges overnight. I haven't had mine connected to a phone line since I started over a year ago and have had no service interruption.
correct. an ethernet connection is enough for PPV billing. you don't need a phone line. i don't have a phone line. i use the ethernet connection. it's perfect
You really don't need either connections unless you use the somewhat new OnDemand. PPV can be done from DirecTV.com via user account with your PC which is free or by the calling them directly which costs $1.50 I think.
I don't use my phone lines for their boxes and haven't for over a decade.
