 Best electronic device I've ever owned Sep 07, 2008
It's been 2+ years after I purchased the original Slingbox, and I haven't had any issues with it. I think it is the only device I've owned that I can say that for. I've owned several different routers (different brands) over the last years, and it's always been extremely simple to setup on any of them. I installed it in CT and I've been able to connect to it from different locations in the US and from my native Colombia with no problem. Moreover, I didn't have to do anything special to connect to it from my workplace, considering all the firewalls and restrictions of my corporative network.
I ended up purchasing a second one (this time a Slingbox tuner) to install in my parents house in Colombia. The experience with it has been exactly as with the original Slingbox... I can now watch TV from 2 countries anywhere I am... WOW!
I wish all electronics were like that: simple to setup, robust over time while exceeding your expectations!
Better than I thought it would be Aug 13, 2008
Living is El Paso Texas, I am subjected to watching and hearing about the Dallas Cowboys. But the team I really care about is my Seattle Seahawks.
I was not about to pay the high price for NFL ticket, so I started look for alternatives. The Slingbox looked like a good option. So I contacted a cousin of mine who lives in the Seattle area and asked if he would be willing to host my Slingbox Tuner. He has a Comcast Cable Internet connection and basic cable. I am using AT&T DSL to download.
Took us about 2 hours to set up. I had to talk my cousin how to do port forwarding on what I considered an "off brand" router. More time was wasted with me just trying to find instructions for the router. :-)
Once that was done, and I had his Internet IP address, I tried to connect. I am not going to say it is as good as you will see on TV, but it better than most You Tube videos. I can't see the football, but can easily see how the play is going, who getting tackled, how many yards were made on the play, etc.............
One question that I was concerned about before I purchased the SlingBox Tuner was, "How do I find it, if my cousins IP address changes?"
There are a couple of ways to address this. One register the Slingbox with SlingMedia, they have server that will tell you what the current IP is. Or you can use a service like DynDNS with compatible routers so that you can find the IP Address to connect to your Slingbox.
I could have chose the Sling AV, but I thought the Sling Tuner would be easier to manage. With the Sling AV, I would have needed a VCR to act as a tuner. Did not want to hassle with that.
Overall, I am pretty darn happy with the results.

Slingbox Tuner Jul 17, 2008
It was easy to install and works fine with my Netgear Router.. I like the built in Tuner since I only have one Set top and it would cost $100 a year for a second one..

Freakin' awesome! Jul 15, 2008
Its my second slingbox. Needless to say I am a huge fan of this product. I have a windows mobile phone that I sling to along with my laptop. One is connected to my TiVo and the other to regular cable. These things are great!

Indianapolis to Seattle Jun 06, 2008
My daughter moved from Indianapolis to Seattle. She is a huge Colts fan and told me about Slingbox. Now she can watch our games or Indy tv whenever she chooses. It's wonderful.
