TiVo Series2 Network Guide

Connecting Two Series2 DVRs for Multi-Room Viewing

Next Steps. For each additional DVR, use the network settings you just 
created to complete “Wireless Settings for a Home Network” on page 13. 
After completing Wireless Settings for an additional DVR, verify the 
connections as described below.

Your DVRs will assign themselves compatible IP addresses. This means 
that even though the peer-to-peer network does not have a DHCP server, 
you do not have to complete TCP/IP settings for any of the DVRs.

Verify. Wait 5 minutes after completing Wireless Settings. This gives the 
DVRs time to assign themselves IP addresses and begin communicating 
with each other. 

Check the Now Playing list of each DVR. At the bottom of Now Playing 
(you can press the ADVANCE button to reach the bottom of the list), you 
should see any other DVR on the peer-to-peer network. Select another DVR 
to verify that you can see programs in its Now Playing list.

You’re done! If you have further questions, see “General Network 
Troubleshooting” on page 51.
