Did either of you find a solution to your authentication issues? I have the Ultra 4 Plus and two TiVo Premiere's and didn't have any issues with the FrontView software seeing them for authentication. In addition to the ReadyDLNA setting you mentioned selecting, I have also selected the UPnP option under Discovery Services. I know this option is for devices on the network to detect the ReadyNAS but I don't know if it would have any bearing on the authentication process. Just thought I'd mention it
Although I didn't have any issues with the authentication process I am experiencing a bunch of other odd issues, one of which is when I select the ReadyNAS in the My Shows list on the TiVo there are no video files listed, not even the .tivo files that I originally transferred FROM the TiVo to the ReadyNAS. The same is true of photos and music - there is a ReadyNAS listing in the TiVo menus but no viewable or playable files show up in the respective folders. The odd thing is that I was able to see the .tivo files when I first setup ReadyDLNA link between TiVo and ReadyNAS but now I can't see any playable files from the NAS.
I have several other issues I'm going to post shortly but wanted to post this quick reply first. Let me know if you found a solution to the authentication issues.
