Hello! my name is Daniel Busa with DISH Network customer service. Ideally you want it hooked up to the line for the phone number on your account that way you still get the same functionality. Hope this helps!

Hello, this is Cheri Torres with DISH Network Customer service. I came across your questions and wanted to see if I could help. If you have two different phone lines running in your home, you can hook each phone line up to a different receiver with out any interference. This set up should work fine for both receivers. :) If you have any further questions or concerns feel free to post back here or you can email me at [email protected].
