• Connect to the TiVo service now. Normally, you do not need to connect to the TiVo
service manually. However, for troubleshooting or other unusual circumstances, you
may wish to use this option. After you start the connection, the status indicator reads
“Starting Up” and will change as it goes through several stages. You can watch live
TV, set up recordings, and search for programs while the connection is in progress.
• Troubleshooting. This selection takes you to the Troubleshooting screen, where you
will find Phone Troubleshooting and Network Troubleshooting steps among other
troubleshooting selections.
• Learn about connecting to a home network. Before you connect a network adapter
to your Recorder, the Phone & Network Setup screen will display this selection with a
yellow star. See Chapter 7 for more information about connecting your Recorder to a
home network.
After you connect a network adapter to your Recorder, you will no longer see “Learn
about connecting to a home network.” You will have two new selections available:
• Change connection type. This allows you to change how the Recorder connects to
the TiVo service, by phone or using your home network’s shared Internet connection.
• Edit phone or network settings. The Phone & Network Settings screen has selections
for Phone Dialing Options (see below for details), TCP/IP Settings, and Wireless
Settings. See Chapter 7 for more information about TCP/IP Settings and Wireless
Settings.
