Hello to the Tivo world.

I recently received a Tivo from some friends in the US as a present. Until they had mentioned Tivo, I had never even heard of it, so excuse my bluntness or blatant lack of knowledge on it's operation.

Using the Oz Tivo website, they set up the Tivo before sending it to me, but as you may probably guess by my posting here... not all has gone to plan.

I don't have foxtel digital, just local FTA TV here in Adelaide, but I do have bigpond cable internet. My Tivo is linked via gaming adapter, to my wireless router.

So far we have managed to get the Tivo to download the program guide data, make successful calls and so fourth. My problem ends with displaying
live TV. I have access to web Tivo functioning and seem to be able to access everyhting except live tv.

I probably haven't explained things enough for any direct help from this post, but I am really in need of some help. Can anyone assist me please?

Thanks in advance.
