[QUOTE="tothbros, post: 851307, member: 388269"] as sky is updating their software, one of the new things is the ability to perform a callback via internet, without the need of a connected telephone line (box office and sky store rentals). for now, only amstrad boxes get this update (drx890/895). if you're abroad, you have 2 choices to use on demand: vpn or smartdns (from a company called overplay). i have been using overplay's smartdns for 2 months now, and it works great: no need for vpn, i just set up the provided dns servers on the router, and sky on demand works fine. the huge advantage is that download speeds are far better than through a vpn. as i have a pace box, no update is available yet, so my question is for somebody who is using amstrad drx890/895 abroad with the new software (R007): does broadband callback work using smartdns or only via vpn?
