Phone System Setup

You must set up the Hopper with Sling for your phone system (touch-tone or rotary-phone

dialing), and set a telephone number prefix, if you need a prefix to dial an outside call.

Note: A prefix is different than an area code, which is required for all 10-digit dialing.

1 Press the MENU button, select the Settings tile, Network Setup, and then Phone Line.

2 Select the Touch Phone or the Rotary Phone option under Phone Type.

3 Select either the No Prefix or the Prefix Code option under Outside Line.

Note: Usually, you need a telephone number prefix only for business phone installations.

For most residential installations, all you need to do is set the telephone system type. The

default setting of No Prefix will allow correct dialing. If this is the case, select the Save

option to save the above settings, and stop here. If you know that you need to set a prefix,

then instead of selecting the Save option, skip to step 5.

4 If you selected No Prefix, then select Save.

5 If you selected Prefix Code, the receiver highlights the box where you must enter the

exact sequence used when dialing via an outside line. Use the on-screen number pad.

6 If you haven’t done so already, now select the option to Save.

CONNECTING TO BROADBAND INTERNET

If you have broadband (high-speed) Internet access at home, connect your Whole-Home

DVR system to your home network. You can use this connection to order all PPV/VOD

programming using your remote control if you are not able to connect a phone line. It also

provides access to additional content not usually available through your DISH package.

Refer to the www.mydish.com/getconnected website to view more detailed information

and instructions for completing this type of connection.
