Connecting to series 1 Tivo
I've got a series one TiVo that is set to a static IP address that is outside the range of my new router now I've moved to Wanaka. I'm guessing the only solution is to get connected to the TiVo via a serial cable and reset the IP, unfortunately I don't have access to a PC with a serial cable. Does anyone know if it's possible using a serial to USB converter? or is there another solution?
cheers

Nope. A normal cable should be fine. I take it you do know what the TiVo's old static IP is?
The other - and perhaps easier (?) - option might be to simply change the address range on your new router to the same as your old static IP address on the TiVo. I assume that you were using a private IP address range?
Sometimes that's easier ...
