Completing the DVR's Network Settings

If your DVR is connected to a wired (Ethernet) network adapter, skip to"TCP/IP
Settings for a Home Network" on page 89.
Wireless Settings for a Home Network
If you have a wireless home network, and have connected a wireless network adapter to
your DVR, as described on page 83, you are ready to complete Wireless Settings.
To get to Wireless Settings: press the TiVo button on the remote control to go to TiVo
Central, then select Messages & Setup, then Settings, then Phone & Network, then "Edit
phone or network settings," then Wireless Settings.
Wireless Checklist
This is the first Wireless Settings screen you will see. It lists information you need to
complete wireless settings. You can find all this information in the configuration settings
of your network's wireless access point or router.
If your wireless network does not use encryption (WEP), then you only need to provide a
wireless network name; you do not need to provide a password format or password.
When you are ready to continue, press SELECT on your remote control.
Wireless Connection and Wireless Network Name
You must now provide the name of your wireless network. Wireless networks have a
network name (sometimes called an SSID for service set identifier). A wireless network
may be open or closed. Open wireless networks broadcast their network names, allowing
devices in their vicinity to identify them automatically. Closed wireless networks do not
broadcast their network names, so they cannot be identified automatically.
