If your dorm is on a PBX, it could indeed fry your Tivo's modem --
proceed with great caution on the phone line.
If you have a computer in the room connected to the internet, you
may consider using it to "share" its internet connection to the Tivo.
A cheap router will likely allow you to clear the proxy and firewall
issues.
