Q&A: Open port – should I be worried about doing this???
Question by Matt M: Open port - should I be worried about doing this???
Ok, here's the deal - my college blocks all but web and pop3 ports (supposedly all but 80 and 110 are blocked) and my ISP at home blocks ports 25, 80, and 110 because running a server violates the TOS.
I'm thinking port 443 (HTTPS) will probably be open at the college (HTTPS sites work, I assume it's open) and I know it's not blocked at home. I have software firewall on my main computer and XP firewall on the other computer that's not usually running.
Is it asking for trouble if I leave that port open on my home router - forwarded to either a printer-server or (future) slingbox?
Thanks in advance!
The college blocks all OUTBOUND ports except those to prevent file-sharing, spam, and such on their network.

It needs a TCP/IP connection via an ethernet cable. I don't think this is what cell phones use, but I could be wrong.
And you phone bill would be enormous.

Question about wireless bridge?
Question by : Question about wireless bridge?
I need to bridge my non-wireless Slingbox to my wireless network with WPA-Security. My current Wireless router is Wireless-G so I was wondering if the bridge would work because it's Wireless-N http://www.ecost.com/detail.aspx?edp=42480559&source=EWBBASE&cm_mmc=CSE-_-google-_-ewbbase-_-Networking&CAWELAID=366930854. Thanks! And does it have to be the same Wireless device on each end or no, Like to of the wireless things linked above? Thanks
Best answer:
Answer by Hugh Parker
It doesn't have to be the same wireless device on each end, but each device on a wireless network has to be using the same protocol. Check that the bridge you're going to buy supports wireless-g - if it does, you should be fine.

Q&A: Question about those new converter boxes?
Question by Jeff H: Question about those new converter boxes?
I recently won a Slingbox SOLO in a raffle and I only have analog cable. I don't plan on getting digital cable anytime soon but I since it is only a SOLO I need a cable box that has the tricolor video out R/L audio out.
I am wondering if those new converter boxes are capable of inputting analog cable and changing it to those tricolor outputs or does this work simply for those "rabbit ear" antennas?

Q&A: Question about SlingBox?
Question by imsmartkid: Question about SlingBox?
My brother just put it on my computer so I can watch his TV. He has Tivo. So my question is, would his TV have to be on for me to be able to watch it too?? And also do you think he would get mad if I paused his TV on him? lol
Best answer:
Answer by Joshua g
Yes, the slingbox just shows what the tv has on at the moment and must be on when you want to watch it.
You can control everything you would be able to control as if you were at home with the remote. There is actually a little remote that pops up next to the video portion.
You guys might run into some problems trying to watch it at the same time, if you pause it, it will pause at the house. He could always just unplug the actual "slingbox" though.
Good luck, oh yeah did you know they have it for your phone. Where you can watch everything on your phone (as long as you have a certian type of phone with windows mobile or symbian s60 operating systems)

I bought this from amazon as a gift and I'm afraid that my recipient didn't like it. The problem he had was that it is not HDTV compatible. He would have prefered a HDTV computer tuner rather than a Slingbox. The thing is that techincally you can program your computer with an HDTV tuner to do the exact thing that Slingbox does for less money than the unit costs. I don't really see any problems with it personally even though programming your own isn't that difficult. It looked pretty nice to me when I bought it.
Because it hasn't been 30 days I'll probably return it back to Amazon and get an HDTV tuner instead.
