TiVo AG0100 Wireless G USB Network Adapter for High-Speed Internet Connectivity

Liberty Skier: Certain TIVOs are configured to only be compatible with a TIVO wireless adapter. This one was used and offered at a very favorable price. Shipped fast and worked fine when installed and my only complaint is that a prior user had adhered it to something with sticky black gunk that I had to attack with mineral spirits. All good.

Randall M: The "G" adaptor works just fine!!! No delays with online streaming or transfers. Only one wire to the tivo's usb port. Where the "N" requires a maze of wires for powering the N, then another wire to the NETWORK port of the tivo. So many messy wires, and no real benefit gain in function over the G adaptor. And the G costs half the price as the N. If you need a tivo wireless adaptor, stick with the G. I stream online and transfer HD video between my 2 premiere tivos. The G adaptor transfers fast and I can start watching an on-goining transfer right away. So just stick with the G adaptor and save money and the wire maze mess you have with the N adaptor. I got a second G adaptor for my second tivo premiere, and now use my N adaptor only on my LG HDTV. The N adaptor is basically a wireless supply device. I suppose you can use the N adaptor to connect any networked device that is not wireless on its own, but has a network port plug. The tivo N adaptor can access your N wireless network in the home, and the network N cord can be plugged into any device with a network port, making that device wireless. So I now use my tivo N adaptor only on my LG HDTV, not wireless on its own. I use the...

William T.: This device completely surprised me at how easy and simple the setup process was. It took me only about 5 or 6 minutes to complete the entire setup process once I took it out of the box. The setup process is very simple by just following the onscreen instructions from the TiVo menu and there is absolutely no need to read any manuals or setup guides at all.

I used to have a dedicated telephone line just to be able to connect and download the TiVo programming data, which cost me about $23 a month. After purchasing this device, I canceled and eliminated my telephone line which saves me about $275 a year. Prior to purchasing this device, I also had to deal with a very long telephone cord going around my living room because there was no phone jack near where I had my TV placed. There is no longer a dangling telephone cord going around my living room which also wrapped around my couch.

A brand new unit sells for about $45 to $60. However, since this device has no moving parts and is basically just a wireless apparatus to transmit and receive programming data to and from the internet, I would recommend getting a used or refurbished one to save yourself a few more dollars. I...

Arnaldo: Works exactly as promised. I plugged it in after unplugging my old USB wireless adapter that was 802.11 b. Tivo noticed the removal of my adapter then that a new adapter was plugged in. I went through the on screen menus for wireless access and was done quickly. We move alot of shows from one Tivo to another and I wanted to speed up the process.

First the specs...Tivo HD in one room, Tivo Series 2 dual tuner upstairs. Tivo HD has already a Tivo wireless G USB adapter. Series 2 has an old wireless B USB adapter. These work in conjunction with my Trendnet Wireless G Router. Tivo HD has 90% signal strength and the Series 2 about 65%- witch Tivo still lists as very good strength, if memory serves me right.

Okay, now that is out of the way. We use to start a transfer 30 minutes prior so we could watch the show and still forward the commercials. Watching the show immediately after the start of the transfer was not an option. Even at 15 minutes prior without forwarding the commercials I would catch the transfer and have to wait, annoying.

Guess what, watching a video right away is now possible! I can start right away with out any hesitations in the show. That being...
