[QUOTE="BonceChops, post: 87886, member: 179529"] I think sky tell your box to do an E.T. (phone home). Then they know it is connected to the phone line. No 'phone home' no connection to phone line. They use the caller ID to make sure it is on the correct phone line. ( it must dial 1470 to make sure caller ID is sent ) You can't use 2 LNB's on one dish on the same satellite. The signal from the satellite will only have one focus point where the LNB is fastened. You would have to use a quad LNB which has 4 outputs, 2 for each box. If you are taking advantage of a sky package I think they will have to install it for you. If they do you can just replace ( possibly extend with female-female F connectors ) the coax to reach the location you want. While you drilling holes through walls why not connect together PC's ( if they have one ) share a broadband connection with a router and pay half each. [/QUOTE]
