TIVO Compatible?

[tomcart]

I have the same set up - Tivo series 2, direct tv and cable modem with a phone line plugged into the phone jack of the ooma hub. I used *pp with one pause but I also used 1 and the area code before the tivo dail in number. That worked to get a connection but during downloading the connection dropped 3 times. Not sure what the issue is now but will keep trying or just get a tivo wireless hub, I think you can get them for under $40.

Thanks, glad to have any suggestions. Tried *, and *,, but no luck.

Unfortunately I don't think I can go the Tivo hub route, since I have a DirecTV TiVo and they never enabled home networking on those.

The prefix is *99 followed by whatever character your Tivo uses for a pause, either a comma or a p.

Yes, I mentioned in my first post that *99, didn't work in my case.

I have DIRECTV being installed Tuesday, Nov 3rd. I have Ooma Telo. What are the correct connections that have to be made for things to work? Do I have to get certain other systems? I have cable not dsl. Do I have to get a specific type to be able to access things?

I finally got my tivo to work with my ooma telo. I used the following settings: Dial prefix = [pause][pause]*99; Call Waiting Prefix = None; Tone/Pulse Dialing = Tone; Availability Detection = On; and Dial Tone Detection = Off. Not sure why these settings worked, but they did. GOOD LUCK!

There should be a pause after the *99 to allow the dial tone to return before the number is dialed.

I have an early model ReplayTV DVR. I can't seem to get it to update the guide via the Ooma Telo even after using the *99 prefix. Has anyone else had any luck with ReplayTV DVRs? I am going through my home's telephone wiring as the DVR is upstairs and the ReplayTV DVR is downstairs, too far to plug into the Ooma Telo directly.

I do have it set up this way with Vonage and it works perfectly with Vonage via my home's telephone wiring. Just can't seem to get it to work with Ooma.

Did you reduce the ReplayTV's baud rate to 9600?

I also have an issue with my ReplayTV/Showstopper. I just found this and will try some ideas here.
