I got the service update and have just noticed a couple of things about the Tivo transfer speeds.

Both Tivo HD units. Both never upgraded with original hard drives.

One of my wired LAN, one using a Tivo wireless adapter.

When I transferred a show last night, I logged into my router and saw the show transferring from the wired one to the wireless one at 24mb/s.

When I transferred the same show from the wireless one to the wired one, I was getting 18.0mb/s.

What's really interesting is that the one on my wired lan was recording a suggestion.

When I started the transfer, it stopped recording the suggestion, but never changed the channel.

This leads me to believe that Tivo is working on getting he MRV speeds up on the Tivo series 3 and tivo HD units.

Anybody else seeing the same thing? Going from my wireless one to the wired Tivo HD, I was getting around 18-20mb/s consistently.

Nice Fall Service update.

1 possibility is that the wireless is receiving some interference which slows down its communications. Try switching the wireless's channel, try channel 6 or 11.

Yes, the speeds have increased. I don't have hard #s, but I can now xfer an HD show from one tivo to another (both TivoHDs) and watch it live without experiencing pauses.

Both Tivos are connected via ethernet, one to the router and one to a PrintServer that communicates wirelessly (G) to the router.
