I recently purchasec 240 sa2 tivo without hdd. Got a new hdd, instacake, ptv48 with enhancement and sapper. everything loaded smoothly and tivo booted up. tested phone line in setup and test call wont succeed (I have vonage). spent 2 days researching tivo and vonage, tried all suggested prefixes, nogo. maybe modem is broke.
Tried to use ppp. I have sa1 setup to use ppp. Read that with sa2 software 7.+, its no different, just use ,#211 and it will do it, again failure.
then I setup always on PPP. succeeded after a few goof-ups. I can now telnet into tivo, however no joy even after changing prefix to ,#401.
then I remembered the change in rc.arch for using ppp and ,#401, but the rc.arch looks totally different between sa1 and sa2. just for the hack of it, ported sa1 rc.arch file to sa2, no joy.
bought a wired usb network adapter which claimed to support linux (based on moschip7830). the badl uck continued. tivo says no driver for it, but it works on my linux machine.
so i need help
1. does any one have driver for moschip 7830 they can share, I know it is not likely.
2. Can anyone tell me what I am missing with always on PPP? I am sure it is telling tivo to go to ppp instead of looking to etho0 with dialing code of ,#401.
any help will be greatly appreciated.
