Our cable and internet has been out since late Tuesday and the TiVo Bolt I have hooked up to an OTA antenna is not able to "phone home" for its guide information and clock setting. I would like to record a couple football games but the TiVo thinks it's late Thursday evening right now and shows the guide and program information accordingly. A manual record would have that false information imbedded in it also unless I can get the clock set to the correct time.
I've no idea, but this probably isn't the best forum to ask. I'd suggest posting your question here instead: TiVo Bolt DVR/Streamer | TiVo Community Forum

Can you set up a quick/temp hot-spot on your phone and connect the Tivo to it via wifi, then after it updates just kill the hot-spot?

Thanks - I thought of that, but I was concerned what the effect might be when taking it out of the home network that contains several other lifetime TiVos. Probably nothing too drastic, but I decided to just use Channels to record them off of our HDHR Quatro instead and view the ones I wanted to via our clunky Sony Bravia TV's Android interface, which is fine for regular shows but very limiting for live sports.
You're absolutely right, but it had been so long since I had used that forum that I couldn't find or remember my login credentials there and I was hesitant to create a new one.
