Verion FiOS - odd behavior

[barrysk]

OK - I just got FiOS installed in the house and after many attempts, have gotten one of two SA Series 2 with Linksys wireless adapter to connect to network. The problem is the other one - it continues to generate an N06 error and will not connect to the router.
I've tried reentering the SSID manually, and the password and strangely, I never get asked any questions about a DHCP server (once I finally got the other Tivo connected, the network setup asked about DHCP and IP addressess). I've tried turning off WEP security, enable MAC address (and providing the valid MAC addresses) and all with the same result.

I'm pretty sure that once I get the questions about DHCP and IP addresses, this second TiVo will connect but I'm at a loss as to how to go about making that happen.

I was on the phone with TiVo support for a while and they don't seem to know why its not asking for DHCP TCP/IP information either as part of the network setup.

Can anyone shed some light or point me in the correct direction.

thanks

I'm not sure how much I can help, but I do have the same issue -- trying to connect multiple Tivo boxes to the router supplied by Verizon.

One thing I have discovered is that it seems to be the first one "in" that gets connected. If I unplug the wireless adapter on the connected box and wait 30 minutes, I can then connect the other box that was having problems. But then when I go back and try and connect the original box, it won't connect (N02 or N06 errors). I have checked every possible setting on the router, and nothing changes.

I'm going to try removing WEP security (some have suggested that). Another option is to use the Verizon router as a bridge to my old Linksys router and use it for the wireless connections. I never had a problem with that one, and was bummed when Verizon said I had to use their router.
