If you feel you are up to it technically why not convert your TiVO with
a Network Card and Digital Cache? There are hardware kits from some
people called Silicon Dust. There is ample assistance and software
available in the various TiVo Forums. You will need an old PC which you
can boot up in Linux to initially install the networking software. Not
difficult but you need to be technically competent.

Our two TiVos are connected to our in house network and simply make
their daily call direct to the TiVo computers through our Broadband
connection. No telephones or modems required. Very quick too.
