Turns out that the latest version of nic_config_tivo (dated 28 Jan 2007; file size 23754 bytes), also creates a blank /etc/ppp-options file.
If you run into this problem, you can fix it by copying the /etc/ppp-options.orig file and manually adding your ISP dialin username using the following commands at a bash prompt in a telnet session:
cd /etc
rw
cp /etc/ppp-options.orig /etc/ppp-options
echo "user ISP_USER_NAME" >> /etc/ppp-options
ro
...where ISP_USER_NAME is your dialin username for your ISP.
Note that nic_config_tivo correctly updates the /etc/tclient.conf and /etc/pap-secrets files.
