We would like to announce that the compatible adapters page at www.tivo.com/adapters/ has been updated to include two 802.11g wireless network adapters. Support for these adapters is included in the 7.1x software release.

Does support extend to WPA encryption?

It would be so nice to have it and it makes no sense to me whay Directv hasn't turned on this functionality (or the rest of it for that matter!)

It's a Tivo business decision.

I'm itching to get my network in G only mode.

Me too... I'm hoping sometime soon we can get WPA support. I'm not going to bother rebuilding my network until then.

BUT.. I'm not sure how much of an improvement you'll get. And this is the funny thing with wireless.. it's a bit unpredictable.

Actually the funny thing in this case is related to Tivo's software, hardware, and/or the wireless drivers, not the wireless connection itself. Ah well, we'll continue beta testing for them.
