I am a couple of mouseclicks away from signing up for legitemate Direct TV or Dishnetwork service from over here, going to try to pass myself off as a resident of the US with the help of friends who live there and getting the larger dish locally etc. With all the free hardware and tivo deals out there it's hard to resist, and local pirate cable has really got me bored lately. (I should be brain-damaged from 5 years of it)
I was wondering if anyone who has gone this route has advice like:
What are the advantages of one over the other in terms of being able to activate the equipment from here? (or does one simply have to have their co-conspirators activate the stuff in the US first)
How does one cancel the "free standard installation" without giving away their true intent?
Does anyone know if a non-US billing adress for the credit card used to pay for the service will be a problem?
Basically I would like to know if someone else has done this and can advise me on simple steps I could take to ensure successful content smuggling.
