Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
'Cept you'll still have to buy the Ethernet card for your TiVo.
I've been using home networking for forever. My collection of pretty pictures looks so much better on the big screen, not to mention I don't have a stereo in the living room, and can set my TiVo from work.

That's the bit that really tempts me.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
do you need an ethernet card for the Tivo? Why?

So that you can connect it to a network. The TiVo doesn't come with network hardware, just a modem for calling headquarters.

Really? Mine came with an ethernet port. All I had to buy was the wireless network adapter thingy.

Is yours a Series 3?

Our wings are not tired
My series2 has a USB port, not an ethernet port. I could either add the USB WiFi adapater or a USB to Ethernet adapter.

Pretty sure it's a Series 2.

Oh, you know what, I bet mine is networked through the USB port. Doh!]
