Your receiver calls them, and I don't think Dish cares exactly what number your receiver calls in on. [edit: They do care where the number is from, tho, as in location of number.] I have never had any receiver hooked up to the phone number dish has, and PPV has always worked fine for 6 years/multiple receivers. Whether it works or not seems to be dependent on whether the receiver and Dish can establish an acceptable modem connection - affected by things like quality settings, whether its a Moto VT or Linksys, the ISP's capabilities, etc. They claim they *don't want* VoIP users receivers to be able to call in because they can't determine the true location of the call/receiver, thus VoIP is "not supported", then destroy their own argument by letting you order over the Internet for a service fee, without a clue where you are originating the order from. What difference does it make that a box is 2 receivers, if it cant call in even if it were a single receiver? In my opinion, both are just another way for nickel-and-dimeing Charlie to make more money.
When I tried to (twice) make a trouble report for * and # lockout on predial on the 921 the techs told me they are intentionally locking * out on new receivers so we cant use *99 predial to improve the likelihood of a successful modem connection. That's more like negative support than no support. Good luck gelli786!
