My SlingBox will not connect. Help?
I connected my slingbox perfectly fine without any problems whenever I purchased it about 6 months ago. However, as of the last 3 months anytime that I try to use the slingbox, it says that it cannot connect. I have used this slingbox on 3 different computers without any issues in the past. It is not the internet connection, cable box connection, or router. All of those are powered on and connected. Like I said, it worked perfectly fine for about 3 months, but now it simply will not connect. any idea what I can do? thanks
I am using the slingbox ID and not using the IP address..still won't connect. I unplugged everything and it still won't connect.
how many channels does the hp slingbox receive?
i want to buy a slingbox from hp, to watch tv on my laptop. when i go to the FAQ on the website it says that you need to hook up the slingbox to your television in order for it to work. if my slingbox is connected to my tv, then are the channels i receive on my laptop limited to the amount of channels i get on my tv?
example: i get up to 30 channels on my tv. once i connect the slingbox to my televison will my slingbox only get 30 channels as well, or will it get more, less, ect?
also, will my slingbox be able to receive internet channels as well, or only cable channels?
also, do i need to connect the hp slingbox to both my tv AND laptop, or is it just one or the other?
Slingbox AV video quality?
I want to get a Slingbox AV so I can watch my satellite TV (Dish Network DVR) on my laptop. I would like to know how the full screen video quality on my MacBook will compare to the quality on my regular TV that's hooked up to the satellite receiver directly. I wont be accessing the Slingbox over the internet-just on my wireless home network. I use an Apple Airport Extreme base station router and my MacBook is a 2nd generation with a 2.16 GHz Core 2 Duo and 2 GB of RAM. Anybody with Slingbox experience please respond. Thanx!

Slingbox administrator password question?
I never recall making an administrator password for my slingbox. From day 1, I have only used 1 password to control everything with my slingbox. However, recently I had to re-install the slingbox program onto my computer and it connects and works fine on the computer that I installed it on, but not on other computers of mine. When I attempt to click on my network settings to allow remote viewing, it tells me that I must give them the administrator password? I have absolutely no clue what this is because like I said, from day 1 I have only used 1 password to do everything. Any idea what I can do or if the administrator password is located somewhere in the instruction manual? I never recall even making one ...

Geek Brief TV #286
There are Briefs that feel like...meh...some I really like. This is one I really like. I start with the Belkin rockstar [1] headphone hub that lets you share your out with up to four other listeners. I had to cover the PRO-HD Slingbox [2]. That was a huge story today. I'd be more likely to get one to use on my home network than to try and sling across the world. Paul Miller at Engadget wrote a brilliant line about the Dell Crystal LCD display [3] that's actually for sale now. Sennheiser adopted Kleer wireless audio technology for possibly the best wireless earphones [4] available yet. I also end with a segment I'm calling, "Look what this guy did!" In this edition I show how Cynergy Labs [5] created a multi touch interface (sans the touch) using a Wiimote. It's brilliant.

Slingbox & Internet Speed?
I am considering buying the Slingbox A/V for my house so my brother could watch our cable at his dorm. Anyways my question is can I still browse the internet comfortably while the Slingbox is streaming onto the internet on the same internet line. The Slingbox would be connected through a powerline adapter that is 14mbps. I just did an internet speed test and my internet speed is 3600kbs download and 2711kbs upload. Thanks for answering.
I am asking how it would effect internet browsing not what type of internet the box requires
Slingbox questions!!!?
ok well i was thinking about getting a slingbox for christmas but i dont quite understand the whole concept. can i plug the Slingbox Solo into a tv without a cable box? because my tv with a cable box is on a different floor from my network and i dont feel like coughing up 80 bucks for the slinglink. so im forced to use a tv without a cable box and was wondering if i could still hook a slingbox up to it. also if i was at college could i watch my tv on my computer from my tv at home? or does it have to be on the same network?
