The router is working okay for everything except the TIVO devices. I have two TIVO s, each with a wireless N adapter. The error is N02 - can't find DHCP server.
netgear says it's the ISP who should fix it
ISP says call,Tivo
tivo says go,to ISP
i am able to connect two iPads, two,iPhones, a PC and a smart TV to the router with no problem.
its not logical that both wireless N adapters would quit working at the same time, so I ruled out a faulty adapter as the problem, in addition, I took the adapters to the router and they are recognized When directly connected to an Ethernet port on the router
DHCP is enabled in the router's settings
channel is set to 6
I triied setting a static IP addr so for the TIVO. I use .30 and it is in the range but still didn't work
the internet provider says they will send someone to the house, but I don't see how that will help. They ch cked,the modem signal and didn't see any issues.

Re: tivo wireless n adapter - can't find dhcp server
You might beable to have the adapters connect to the main host routers SSID name and PW next time you try this.
Glad you got it working. Enjoy.
