Pretty much. About the only step you left out is telling the Tivo your network
security configuration. (You do have at least some network security turned on,
right? :-)). The menus are really easy to use on the Tivo and it only takes a
minute or two for the whole procedure. With a solid signal it's not much
slower than wired either.
