Thread: Serial cable and internal modem

    Serial cable and internal modem

    Hi,
    Darren King has kindly set up my new Tivo via a Turbonet connection however I did not get one installed as I am going to use the internal modem for a brief while, until I upgrade my PC etc.
    When I (eventually work out how to) get in via the serial cable I bought with it, will I have to clear everything so it detects a serial connection instead of a Turbonet card before I put the ISP etc in?
    Also, I have no options under Phone setup on screen, as I guess it thinks it has the Turbonet card still.
    Any help would be appreciated please? (I promise to upgrade and contribute via our Linux guys at work - they were frustrated on Friday working trying to connect)
    Thanks, Peter

    Hi Peter,

    No, once you have a serial connection working you can follow this:

    I have no options under Phone setup on screen, as I guess it thinks it has the Turbonet card still.

    No it's a known issue - that menu doesn't work when the TiVo runs in PAL mode.

    Cheers, Dave.
