TiVo and NAS

I've got a Netgear ReadyNAS at home which has a built in DLNA streaming service that supports TiVo.

I've followed the instructions on the Netgear forums for enabling support and it then points me at getting the media access key from the TiVo. That page on the box shows the key and says I can use it to access "Virgin Recordings from your home network". If I connect an ethernet cable to the box, it doesn't seem to get an IP address which obviously means the NAS can't see it.

I'm guessing this is because the LAN port on the TiVo is disabled, so why does the mak page suggest I should be able to connect to the TiVo remotely? Is this some "coming soon" functionality from Virgin?
