PAY-PER-VIEW

To order Pay-Per-View programs using your remote control, you must connect the receiver to an active phone line or broadband Internet connection. After you order a Pay- Per-View program, you can watch it on all of the receivers on your DISH Network account. Using the remote control, you can order the exact same program for each receiver but you pay for the program only once. However, replays of programs are separate events.
