    How do I set up a home network?

    Thank you all! Everything I read about was "how to set up your wireless router" and how complicated it seemed, when I'd read about ethernet, it sounded almost automatic. But none of them talked about switches. So, I assumed... I even tried going right from the modem to the TIVO, and all three...

    How do I set up a home network?

    I don't know much about networking. All I had was the desktop computer going right to the cable modem with an ethernet cable. Now I got my used TIVO 652160 with lifetime a few days ago and I figured I'd run an ethernet cable to it too.But this is where I get confused. I assume a router means...

    Just bought used TIVO 3- Password protected???

    I just bought a used TIVO 652160 w/ lifetime & 1TB. I'm trying to reset the system or even watch his stuff, but all I can watch is his kids stuff because everything I try to do asks for a password or turn off parental control. Is there a way around the password or to crack it? I tried e-mailing...

    OTA DVR? ANY GOOD ONES OUT THERE?

    About TIVO subscriptions... So if I get the new 746320 Premier from Amazon for $69,the monthly fee will be $20 or $500 lifetime. But then they have used ones there for $100 or $140 that say $13 a month. I wonder if that also means $400 lifetime like Weeknees offers? I'm guessing the difference...

    OTA DVR? ANY GOOD ONES OUT THERE?

    I was waiting for the Channel Master 7400 to come out, but Im starting to wonder if it will ever happen. So now Im looking into TIVO. But I cant swing the lifetime service right now and I read conflicting reports on what TIVO will do for you without service. Some say its just a tuner with no...

    New 6 channel OTA station mux in Minneapolis

    Iceberg, I think I saw you said you have a DTV Pal converter box like mine. I get all the broadcast channels here in St. Paul (Lake Elmo) except for ch 41 KPXM or ION TV. Do you get it or are my rabbit ear antenna not cutting it or is it analog? St. Cloud is a ways off. I assume I dont get 25...
