When oztivo.conf (in ozTivo 1.6.2) has nic=modem I tried running ifconfig - it says I only have a "lo" device - no "eth" device.
The approach I took to make daily calls via the modem, and still have network access to the tivo (for oztivo 1.6.2):

from the installer/nic_config_tivo, setup the TurboNet card (IP address, MAC etc)

edit /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit.local
Code:
dbrm /State/PhoneConfig DialPrefix
dbsetx /State/PhoneConfig DialToneCheck 0
If this file does not exist you will need to create it, then make sure it is executable
dos2unix /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit.local (if created on a windows machine)
chmod +x /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit.local

edit /etc/tclient.conf
Code:
127:ispphone:127.0.0.1:8000:ispusername:isppassword:
where ispphone, ispusername, and isppassword are your ISP login details

edit /etc/ppp-options
Code:
user ISPusername
edit /etc/pap-secrets
Code:
*   *   ISPpassword
NOTE: it is a single TAB after each *, not spaces

Hope this helps
