Hi nsinha,
The only setting you can change on the router is the channel or mode but I don't think this will help as it might be a limitation of the TiVo as what you have mentioned.

Yes unfortunately.
When i called Tivo, they mentioned that there may be a wireless lag (even if it is a tenth of a second) between the wireless signal and the wired one that may be causing their systems to not be able to work together. I am going to see if connecting the main tivo module wirelessly also instead of via a hard connection will help with the synchronization... since now both modules will essentially be connected to the router wirelessly. I will provide an update after testing this later today.

That did not work. It would have been too easy.
So its back to power cycling before i use the tv connected wirelessly if i am not watching live content or the smart apps or unless someone else has a suggestion.
Thanks

Hi nsinha,
I would suggest try to connect both on wired connection since TiVo mentioned that it might be because of the lag on wireless.
