    Hi everyone,

    Just some oddity, I tried to access my TiVo via TiVoweb, but its asking me for a user name and password??....I don't remember setting one up at all? has anyone had this happen to them before?

    My TiVo is connected to my to my router, and has been eversince I bought the TiVo, and this is the first time its asking me for a password.

    an help would be greatly appreciated,

    This is normal.

    username: oztivo
    There is no password.

    If you did a search of the forums with the keywords tivoweb password there are existing threads and answers on the subject

    Thanks for your quick answer Darren, I must admit after posting I did a search but came up empty handed (twiki site).

    I can access TiVoweb now.

    No problems.

    I think I remember it mentioned on the twiki but not blatantly obvious as you found out doing a search. Always a good idea to check both the twiki and these forums if one fails to reveal anything as usually between the two the answer is somewhere

    The username is only required usually if connected from a different subnet. It provides only very rudimentary security.
