I've had a tivo running on Oztivo image 1.4 for about a year, no real problems. Just aquired a second tivo for my son to use, running NZ version of 1.5 on it. Both tivos have turbo net cards installed, mine is hard wired to a US Robotics modem/router, son's is connected to the same router via a wireless access point. They are both working, but I was having problems gaining access via tivoweb or Putty. Turns out that when I reboot one of them, it establishes itself on the network, and tivoweb/putty work fine. If I then boot up the other one, it 'grabs' the IP address of the first one, which I then can't access! Both tivos are set up to use dynamic IP's. Do I need to set static IP's on both tivo's? If so, can someone post up some simple instructions to do this, as I am nervous of going in 'blind' in case I 'lose' access altogether! I've done a bit of searching in the archives and stumbled across a mention of a risk of problems when running two turbonet cards on the same network, with a suggestion of changing the MAC address of one of them, again, I'm nervous about doing this!
