Tivo-Directv goes to school question

[chelseafan]

Hi all,
I have a 'Directv goes to school' account (which I use in my classroom) and I am thinking about purchasing a directv Tivo. Do I need to have it connected to a phone line or can I just hook up the tivo without it?
Thanks in advance.
Go blues!
