| 810778 | 2009-09-16 05:31:00 | I'm keen to see the David Tua vs Shane Cameron fight on Sky at the inlaws' house - from memory it's $30 or so. Their decoder isn't hooked up to the internet, so can I still book this? |

It will then come up saying you have now booked the PPV. Grab beer and sit back and watch :) |

Or how else would Sky know I'd booked it? |

| 810785 | 2009-09-16 10:38:00 | Not so the phone jack is only used for to book pay per views and the tab the rest is mostly done by the dish thats what sky told me. | Hitech (9024) | ||
| 810786 | 2009-09-16 20:35:00 | Sky decoders are permanently connected to a phone line to make them work Mine has never been connected to it. Sky satellite is one way only - receive. To transmit (book a program) you are using dialup. If you use this, and have broadband, you need a filter oon the jackpoint. You do not have to use it - you can ring them instead. Which is a whole lot faster. |
