Set recording by mobile phone - does it require a phone line connection?

[Scapegoat]

For this service to work does your Sky box have to be connected to the telephone line?

Apologies if this is a silly question / or covered elsewhere (tried searching and couldn't find anything on this).

Cheers

I believe it does...so you can register the Sky+ box via the Interactive menu.
Remote recording doesn't work unless the box is registered for the service.
