Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sling Media Slingbox SOLO (SB260-100)

Customer Review: Slingbox SOLO
Summary: 3 Stars

It works as advertised. I should have read the Tech Spec's a little closer. Kind of disappointed for the money. Nothing too fantastic about the product, but it does what it says it will do. You pump video/audio into the back of it and it can encode out a single stream across the network. Not exactly groundbreaking. There isn't a tuner in it so you need to check your available source devices that you plan to use. It's lame unused USB port could be used for a cheaper optional USB-to-WiFi solution, instead of the additional costly adapters they want to sell you. I mean, how many people have copper Ethernet at their TV location? I opted for a TrendNet LAN gaming adapter (Ethernet to WiFi bridging device) to connect to my wireless router. After a little tweaking and 50 bucks I got it to work fine. I originally bought the SlingBox so my son who is in England could watch some American TV once and a while if he wanted to see whats going on back home. He has had occasional problems connecting which require me to reset the box every week or two. And no, it hasn't been any of the other components in the connection path (wireless router, TrendNet, internet service) It has always been a SlingBox reset that fixes it.

Oh, another thing; if you think (like I did or was hoping) that you can watch TV at work in a window on your desktop, think again. The port number is usually blocked by the company Firewall defaults. So the little box doesn't get much of a workout! You might want to go with a cheaper approach like Orb.
