Tivo 2 won't recognize Netgear MA111

I installed a Netgear FA120 USB/Wired Ethernet adapter to do the initial Guided setup (which worked flawlessly and in about 30 minutes).

Now I have connected a Netgear MA111 wireless ethernet adapter and the unit will not recognize it. I have cycled the unit with and without the adapter and it will not recognize it.

Any suggestions?

The MA111 doesn't work on every Series 2 unit -- only those units which have a TiVo service number that begins with 230, 240, 264, or 275

That's what I have. A 240 series.

GOT IT!!!

Why the heck doesn't it download the most recent update when the Guide is completed? Make sure you get your updates people!

I have the MA111. It works but I wonder if my signal is ok. It runs between 40 & 48 and transfers a 30 min. show in about 70 min. from my other Tivo

How do you determine the signal strength?

If you look at the Network settings page, it shows a lot if info such as IP address, etc. It also shows on that page the signal strength in percent.
