Hi, sorry for a possibly dumb first post but here goes:

Can I use the spare ethernet socket on the Tivo to access the internet via an ethernet cable on my laptop? It is an old laptop and hard wiring tends to work better than WiFi on that machine.

Similarly if I get a Sony Internet enabled TV, can I connect that via the ethernet socket on the TiVo? Will it make any difference to using the TiVo? That is, if I can connect in this way, is there any change in performance to the TivO?

Hope this makes sense.
