  • Rebooting problem

    I got a internet is not connected message. I rebooted the router first, then I rebooted Tivo Roamio. It doesn't finish booting up, it just cycles a bit and then goes back to the start screen. Over and over

    With your model, you almost definitely need a new power adapter ($39.99) and a new hard drive (starting at $249.99).

    Most likely, as the power adapter degraded, it failed to produce the proper power for the drive, causing it physical damage.

    Power adapters for your Roamio are here:

    And hard drives for your Roamio are here:

    Any size hard drive will work.

    With these two parts, there is a 98% chance your TiVo will be up and running again. They are very, very easy to install and we include instructions with pictures and we include the tools you'll need.

    Changing out these parts does not affect your TiVo subscription at all.

      The problem with that, is a similar thing happened a couple years ago, and they had me put in a hard drive of my choice, a different adapter, and advised me to run it off a UPS from then on. Did so, and Weaknees put in the 10 gig hard drive. It better last a lot longer than that...

        You could try just a new power adapter and see what you get, for starters.

            Impossible to measure. You aren't getting a reading under load. So any number you produce isn't what happens in real-world usage.

              OK, Michael, I went ahead and ordered another 10 TB hard drive, with you folks deluxe installing it. I could put one in, but I hate losing all my stuff, so it's up to Weaknees. But, this is a pretty large investment and I did it once before. What can I do to keep from throwing another grand at this thing every few years?

                Let's see what we get when we look at the unit and go from there.
