Have you at least changed the MAC address first? Maybe perhaps it is because your router is not assigning an IP address due to the MAC conflict so there is nothing to report?

Will try that when I get home tonight, don't think that's the problem cos the new tivo is being assigned an IP address, just that it's being 'stolen' from the other tivo! We'll see what happens, I'm planning to just change the MAC address of the new tivo's turbonet card first, re boot both machines to check they are being given different DCHP IP's, then I'll go in again and assign static IP's to each to ease indetification.
Yep that will work. So long as they don't both end in 10:10:10 you will be fine. Leave one set at this and change the other one to 10:10:11 and you will be OK.
Might be stating the obvious, but for any nervous players (like me!) the nic_config_tivo routine is very straightforward to use. My two Tivo's are now working just fine, many thanks to all who helped.
Good stuff!
Did you just change the MAC or also set a static IP?
Changed MAC on one machine and set static IP's on both. Working like a dream now!
