I believe that by connecting both boxes to my router, I can watch shows stored on the Tivo on the V6?
I’m a bit confused, because I assume VM will ask for the Tivo box back, if I upgrade to the V6 as it is rented? And how does activating the V6 come into this - wouldn’t that deactivate the Tivo and render it useless? Assuming I can keep the Tivo to watch shows I have left over, would VM charge me extra per month? I’ve asked VM themselves in much simpler terms, and they didn’t have any answers, which was great...

You either swap the box and hand the other back or you pay for muktiroom and the engineer charge for muktiroom to keep both boxes
