I live in Cyprus and have 2 Tivos , both have network cards which can get onto the internet, we have ADSL,
I just cannot get them to download the TV listings. The problem occurred at the same time with both Tivos.
I have in the past been able to download the listings in Cyprus.
This has been an ongoing problem and have received much help from many people from this site and from Usenet
I have tried:
In theory (never tried it) because the TiVo uses the UUNET dialup
network you could edit the dial _prefix_ to be a suitable local UUNET
dialup number
The Tivo doesnt conect
The ISP states that there is no proxy sever between the Tivo and the internet.
I have tried all the suggestion for trying to bypass proxy servers and altering the code in Tivo.
The Tivo can ping websites in the UK
The ISP is very helpful, they wonder whether Tivo/Sky are blocking Cyprus IP addresses
Using the 00 44 prefix doesnt work. Someone has said the reason for this is that when you phone the UK from overseas you use the 00 44 prefix and drop the first 0 in the UK phone number.
The Tivo can ping websites in the UK.
I really am deparate to update my Tivos, especially since one of the grandchildren started the setup routine and of course the system is now locked because it cannot contact Tivo.
I really would appreciate any help in resolving this problem.
Many thanks
Geoff
