    Angry TivoWebPlus won't make Phone call

    Hi all,

    Well against my better judgement, I finally gave in to curiosity and installed TivoWebPlus. Why did I bother! Anyway the problem I am now having is that TivoWebPlus hangs when trying to make a manual daily call. I use this function as standard as my broadband connection is not always on.

    Has anyone had this problem and knows of a solution or if easier, is there a simple way to revert back to TivoWeb?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Cheers

    John

    Just replace the phone module from tivowebplus with the old one from tivoweb.

    Peter, thanks for the reply.

    That has seemed to have fixed the phone call hanging problem, however now I get "Failed. Service unavailable" message. I don't think minnie is down so something else is not right.

    It's not just you, others are also having issues with daily calls tonight.

    I am looking into it now.

    I buggered things up while playing with WebPlus. Luckly WebPlus makes copies of your startup files called xxx.xxx.ORIG. I just ssh in with putty and copied those files back over the ones WebPlus made. Did a reboot and now things a fine.

    I wouldn't think it's necessary, but may be quicker.

    Can you remember what you did when you installed TWP ?

    It should be as easy as just removing the startup for TWP and re enabling TW in your rc.sysinit.author file, unless you have deleted some of the files.
