I used Hackman module of TivoWebPlus to try and enable remote control of it from outside my network. I was previously able to use TivoWebPlus, FTP, etc with no problem after applying all the hacks,

I clicked the "To enable these backdoor features on boot, go to preferences" in the Hackman module and setup my router to forward the port I specified (along with a username and password) in the tivoweb.cfg. The only thing I modified in tivoweb.cfg was the port, username and password.

After that, my Tivo is not connected to my network and I have no access to it. I have tried rebooting the Tivo with no luck (multiple times). Any ideas or am I going ot have to pull the drive? If I pull the drive, what the heck do I look for?

BTW, I can't connect with FTP, telnet, or anything and my router doesn't show any connection to the Tivo any more.


The instructions I followed:
