Dial Up Modem

**JECastor** · 17-03-2007, 09:35 PM

I have two TIVO's. They both connect using the internal modem. In the last week they have both run out of guide data and now will dial out but fail to connect with Service not answering. I have tried to redo guided setup but have same problem. Could Xtra have changed something?

Certainly nothing changed on the emu configs.

My tivo was set up against port 80 and it also ran out of data last week. Mine was connected via my network and had been running well for over a year, but last week it would connect, set the time but no data seemed to be imported. Forcing a manual phone call didn't help the guide data situation.

The tivo was set up against the Saturn analogue cable service (it was actually a free to air tivo, with most of the channels switched off, with an external VCR).

Unfortunately, I can't give any logs as I decided to re-image the tivo with the latest image last night to get around the problem (I now have a new problem with the guide data having duplicates, but I'll go over that in another post).

OK, good shifting to the supported emulators, that was the right move.

Forget the duplicates, thats simply a hangover from a bad daylight savings switch.

Can you attach a copy of the tclient log? It looks like xtra may have added an additional step to the plain text login procedure from when I first looked into using the modem (last year). I would suggest you try using only PAP to login instead as it will probably work around your problem, see my modification here: http://forums.oztivo.net/showthread.php?t=1213

How do I attach my Tclient log (it seems to be larger than allowed?) and also my TIVOAPP file. I have opened the tivoapp file with a hex editor but cannot find the code to change

If you need to paste a larger log in the future, just zip the file first and attach the zip file.

I should have added that I am getting the EXP_TIMEOUT message

**JECastor** · 18-03-2007, 06:24 PM

OOPS sorry suffered brain fade. Am now trying your fix

Tried your patch. Was I supposed to do something like chmod 777 tivoapp? Still same problem - finishes dialling and then failed service not answering.
