On the Phone Connection screen you can see details, including the time of the last
successful call and last call attempt, and the status of the last call. You also have the
following options:
Make Test Call. When you select this, a test call to the TiVo service will start
automatically. You may wish to use this option for troubleshooting or other unusual
circumstances. Test calls usually only take a couple of minutes. When the call has
finished, press SELECT to continue.
Make Daily Call Now. Under normal use, you do not need to make the daily call manually.
However, for troubleshooting or other unusual circumstances, you may wish to use this
option. After you start the call, the status indicator reads “Starting Up” and will change as
it goes through several stages. You can watch live TV, set up recordings, and search for
programs while the call is in progress.
Change Dialing Options. You can change the following settings (if you make a mistake
while entering a change, use the BACK button to backspace):
Set Dial-In Number. Use this to change the number the recorder uses to make test calls
and daily calls. To change it:
1. Select “Set Dial-In Number.” The Area Code screen appears.
2. Use the number keypad on the remote to set the area code, then press SELECT. If
you change the area code, or if the recorder has not made a daily call in the last
twenty-four hours, the Update Numbers screen appears and the recorder calls the
TiVo service to retrieve a list of local dial-in numbers. After the phone call, press
SELECT. The Dial-In Number screen appears.
3. Use the UP/DOWN arrow to choose one of the listed phone numbers. The recorder
will use this number for daily calls to the TiVo service. Then press SELECT.
