The hurdle, of course, is that the TiVo’s MIPS R5432 is big-endian, so it presents a bit of a challenge porting the driver to the TiVo. Fortunately, there’s been effort on native Linux drivers for the Ralink family of wireless chipsets. It turns out that the Linksys WUSB54G v4 uses the Ralink 2570 chipset. No problem, I know the TiVo runs Linux and there’s plenty of documentation on how to “hack” the TiVo so I can load my own kernel modules on it, etc. I went and grabbed a Linksys WUSB54G as a replacement, but found out that the TiVo doesn’t support it. For years, I’ve had it connected to the home network using a Linksys WUSB11 wireless network adapter, but it finally died. So, I have a TiVo Series 2 stand-alone DVR with a Product Lifetime subscription.
