I can telnet and ftp into the TIVO, but cannot establish an HTTP connection. This is vexing me. I can ping, the router sees the box. My network is as follows: DSL router running 192.168.0.1 subnet Netgear router connected to it, one side on the 192... subnet Netgear router uses DHCP 10.0.0.0 subnet. Laptop connects through wireless side, Tivo and another computer through hub then into hard-wired connections on Netgear. The netgear router sees the Tivo in i'ts device list HEL:P Networking Fri, 05 Mar 2010 23:18:21 GMT murfmv http://www.dvrplayground.com/forum/thread/20492/HELP-Networking-ISSUE/#discussion?src=category_rss http://www.dvrplayground.com/forum/thread/18048/No-Telnet-or-FTP/?src=category_rss Fellow Extractors, I have a Phillips DSR7000 with a Instantcaked and PTVNet 6.2a 250 GB drive installed. I had a horrible time getting the PTV Flags to set on the drive. Finally "forced" PTVNet to install. Rebooted TiVo and it would stay in a reboot loop. Disconncected the USB adapter and the unit booted. Installed USB adapter and Cat-5 cable. Ran Look@LAN and found two non Windows IP addresses (TiVo and wireless printer). I can see the IP address, but when that is entered into a browser, no TivoWebPlus. In addition, I am unable to Telnet of FTP to the IP address either. Any assistance at this point is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance..

The only problem is that, for some reason, my Tivo Desktop server is not seeing my tivo's new address. I know it is locked onto my LAN at the address that I gave it because I can easily call up tivowebplus and/or telnet to it, but I cannot seem to get the tivo desktop server to see it- I am getting Tivo Name = (unknown) address in the Tivo Server Properties / Access Control listing. Obviously, I cannot utilize MRV until the Tivo server and more importantly, the Tivo transfer service recognizes the address. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!!

When I do get the Now Showing list and I try to extract a show, I never get more than 80% extracted before it freezes. Can anyone help?

I had a Netgear FA120 USB connecter. All was fine and dandy. About 14 months ago we moved from Portland to Seattle and in the move the Netgear went missing. I've been using the Directivo without a network connection until today when I picked up a Trend Net TU2-ET100 from my local Radio Shack, plugged it into my Directvo, and into my network. The 100 MPS light lights up but not the link light. Rebooted several times and tried both ports to no avail. I see that there are adaptors that are compatabile for drives baked after Decemeber of 06 but what about one as old as mine? Short of a rebake are there any adaptors that will plug and play? It appears the Netgears are unavailable. If I've missed where this has been addressed in the forum already please forgive me. Thanks for any assistance!

I using a copy of my original drive so I can always go back to a clean copy of 6.3f if needed. In addition, I'm using a Linksys USB200M v2. I initially had trouble with PTVnet 6.x not installing and generating the "no such file or directory" when attempting to set the flags. I found several posts regarding this, and after manually creating the init directory, and using the "force" option to run the script, everything seemed to install. After booting my receiver, I now have link lights on my Linksys adapter, but I do get an address. I've scanned my network using AngryIP to verify this. I also do not have any unaccounted for entries in my DHCP clients table. For troubleshooting purposes, I have tried the USB200M in a laptop where it does get an address and works perfectly. I've read many posts here where people have this working, so clearly I'm overlooking something or doing something wrong. I was going to purchase InstantCake, but InstantCake is also at 6.3f so I don't see what that would gain. Any thoughts from anyone are appreciated.

It was working fine for MONTHS and then all of a sudden... nothing. I wasn't mucking around in there at all. I can still telnet in and get programs with tytools but no hackman. I really don't want to re cake the drive as I'll loose all my programs. Tips on reinstalling hackman? I see there's a new version so maybe I can install that? It's a DirecTivo HDVR2 (Hughes) HALP!!!

Since I don't have a regular phone line (we only use cell phones), I knew from the start I would have to hack it. So I did lots of research, and before I spend any money, I want to get the forums advice (the best forum I found so far). Will this plan work: 1. Use PTVnet and InstantCake on 120 GB hard drive I have laying around. 2. Buy and use Linksys USB200M v.2 10/100 Ethernet USB adapter. 3. Connect Linksys USB adapter to a Linksys wireless hub. Configure wireless hub to be on existing wireless network. 4. Connect to Time Warner cable (I don't have DirecTV's service). Do you guys see any problems with this? Any possible trouble spots? My goal right now is to get updates over the internet. My long term goal is to record some shows on DVD's that I can use at work, but I'll save that for another day.
