As an anti-piracy measure the TiVo Desktop is designed to only see TiVos on the same subnet. (Technically the same broadcast domain if you know networking.) There are ways to trick it by playing routing games *if* the router supports it, but it isn't worth it. Use a web browser. Go to https://the-ip-address-of-your-TiVo/ The login is 'tivo' and the password is your MAK. You can download shows via the browser and save them on your PC. -MZ -- <URL:mailto:megazoneatmegazone.org> Gweep, Discordian, Author, Engineer, me.
