Hey all.

Start off by saying:
1) I know multi-room is for the same house, and this is stated in the ToC.
2) I know you can possibly get in trouble from sky for doing it
3) I know the account holder is liable for all costs.
4) I have searched the GZ forum for the same topics but cannot find one

That aside, I was wondering if it was possible to pay the $25 multiroom charge on a MySky HDi connected, and have the decoder at a completly different residence.

THis would be provided that,
a) A non-sky technician would come and install a dish that I would buy myself.
b) The multi-room decoder would be installed (connected) by sky in a room at the account holders residence, NOT where I intend to put it.

Is this possible?

I know you used to be able to do this on the older ones, but does anyone know if it works on the HDi boxes?
Also, do HDi boxes have to constantly be connected to the phone line?

Thanks all for your help.

-Dan

I've done this with my parents, I still pay the bill here, it works well. Just note they won't install the box at the 2nd address, they'll need to install it at your current address.
