No.  Ethernet is only for development use.  I have special TiVos with
extra hardware (Ethernet and two serial ports).  For development, we
tend to boot our TiVos off the net using Bootp/TFTP/NFS, just like a
diskless Sun.  Saves the trouble of installing new software on the
TiVo every time you recompile.

I am under NDA to TiVo, so somebody else will have to fill you in on
aftermarket Ethernet hacks.
