Do I still need connection to a phone line for Sky+ to work?

[pcofcfc]

Just changed to a broadband service that doesn't require phone line. I forgot my Sky box is connected to phone line. Will this affect my Sky+ services in any way?

If your Sky box,is connected via broadband, no. 

[pcofcfc]

Phew! So all software upgrades etc come through broadband. Thanks Mark

[Mark39]

Actually, no. All software updates are broadcast to your Sky box via the dish.

[pcofcfc]

Even better...

Thanks again..

Broadband is required for On Demand services like Catchup and Boxsets, the phone line isn't required at all.

Hi. We're moving house. BT have messed up phone line and broadband transfer date so it's after the date Sky engineer is due. Do we need a phone line and/or Boradband for Sky to be set up?

@FiBee57 If you have Sky+ then it shouldn't be a problem.

There's no phone line connection to a Sky Q box.
