I have gotten most of the stuff to work, but there's one that's being a problem. Watching a show transferred to the PC doesn't happen because of some codec problem. I can play DVD's on the computer with the included Sonic player. I've downloaded and installed two or three codec decoders, to no avail. Anyone got an option to get this thing working ?

Right up until the 801.g (2701) started power cycling and now needs replacement (I suspect it's the router that's bad, not something else). I'm using a tivo brand usb wireless adapter to avoid these kind of problems, but I'm not going to sweat it too much until I get the replacement router.

No cable cards yet, wanted to give it a go with just the analog signal going in after all I've read about problems with the cable cards, so far I'm pretty happy. > > Glen >
are you running the tivotogo software on the pc? I have the Tivo HD and it's awesome. I have a Motorola M-card from Comcast and have had no problems. I hear a lot of other cable cards have issues though. If you are watching analog it will be night and day when you get HD goin.
