I can't get my Tivo Series 2 (AT&T) to negotiate with the Tivo central servers. The TiVo sees the local network easily, does music and pictures well, but can't seem to get through e-smith. I forwarded the usual TiVo ports 2190 (TCP & UDP) and 8080-8089 TCP to the TiVo local IP address.
I also tried level 2 tech support; they were patient and knowledgable, but ended up blaming my ISP. My ISP can't see that the ports in question are open, however.
I tried going directly into my Paradyne DSL modem, using a crossover cable, but I get the same type of errors (using my ISP gateway, DNS, and fixed IP address, of course, in the TiVo.
Has anyone got the TiVo to work with e-smith (6.0.1-01)? I have the upgrades from Sverts-Knudsen installed as well (some port issues have been noted with those, I read).
