And here is the funny part. the whole reason that TIVO couldn't find my router was because the router was on WPA while TIVO needs to be WEP. Once I changed my router to WEP, TIVO was able to find the router on its own, get an IP address and the network is working smoothly. The only thing left now is to get the IR blaster channel changer to work!
I have been moving that IR Blaster all around. I wonder if there are strong, better IR blasters that produce a better signal.
