[QUOTE="PoloMint, post: 121868, member: 175235"] Sky digi dialler is a device that lets a Sky digibox call Sky from outside the UK, for registering cards and PPV events. I imagine it tricks the digibox into thinking there is a dial tone, lets it dial, while at the same time it's dialling the full number, including the foreign access code. Then when the modem at Sky answers it would connect the digibox to the phone line, which now has a line to Sky. There are other ways it could work, but that seems the most straight forward. But I don't know how you would go about making one from scratch. I've thought about how you could do it yourself (as in have the box dialing on a duff dial tone while you dial the full number with a phone, then connected the two and hang the phone up) but that's quite a fiddly.
