It took about 90 minutes or so to connect from opening sealed box to fully connected. Needed several attempts before WiFi network and password were accepted. Then, lengthy firmware upgraded was needed. Several attempts of activating at TiVo site with supplied six character code were required. Sometimes, TiVo.com on browser on computer said activation completed but then TiVo stream itself displayed words similar to “lost connection” and had to enter a new six character code to activate another time. Eventually, connection and activation completed. As an important aside, also had to input google user name and password on tv screen as required by TiVo stream. A little complicated but hope this is a one-time process for a device right out of a sealed box.
