What are known-good wireless bridges for a DTivo? Ive searched around, but I want to know which ones would actually work for the Tivo.

Also, would a wireless g usb network adapter work for the DTivo?

Thanks

I would think all of them would be the same, since the TiVo wouldn't care.

Ok, so a bridge like Linksys WET11 Wireless Ethernet Bridge would work flawlessy? Because thats what I'm thinking of buying. But I want to make sure it works before buying

any bridge should work, as long as you've got it correctly set up to work with your wireless network. I use the Linksys DWL-G820 here and haven't had any problems with it.

There are no wireless G USB adapters that work with any DirecTivo's because the stock Tivo software doesn't enable the USB port.

If you're willing to hack the Tivo's hard drive in a PC, then version 6.3.x or higher supports only the Tivo brand wireless G USB adapter - that's it.
