After something like 206 straight days of the Phillips DirecTiVo not completing a successful call, it made its first effortlessly tonight. Thanks to the instructions at TiVohelp.com, I was able to very easily setup my PC up here in the den to connect to my TiVo and complete a call via PPP. Now hopefully, I’ll be seeing the DirecTiVo 6.2 software update soon.

Tomorrow, I’ll be setting up the living room DirecTiVo to complete a call. Because of the neccessity of it needing an XP box nearby, the one downstairs will only occasionally make a call via PPP. Regardless, I’m psyched it worked with relative ease and hope the one downstairs goes just as smooth tomorrow when I set it up.
