Re: TiVo/smart TV networking.

If I wanted to network the new TV, could I buy a cable splitter and then run the two cables from one of the TiVos and the TV into the same homeplug? Or would that not work? It seems to me, that would be the cheapest and easiest way to do it if it would work. Thanks.
Do you use the Multi-Room Streaming (MRS) function on the TiVo or use the remote control function on a tablet or phone?

If not, there is no real need to have them networked so another option is to use your existing setup with the TV instead of the TiVo.
