I will not be using an HD-100 for a few weeks- I am leaving it connected to a phone line to keep Direct TV happy-Does AC power need to be maintained to box to facilitate phone connection?

Yes, the internal modem needs juice. I'd cut the power and forget about them if I were you. Just plug back when you get back. They'll call you if they have a problem.

I would call them and tell that you will not be using it for the next few weeks and ask them to put your account on suspend so that you will not have to pay for the service that you are not using. Then you can unplug the power and the phone line for the safety of the receiver. When you are ready just give them another call and they will turn it back on.
