First I must state that before I downloaded the latest version of slingplayer for mac I had remote access with my system. My setup Airport Extreme N that has been setup for sling box with proper port mapping. I assigned it with its own IP address and port number. Viewing this sling box in the same network is not a problem but doing remote access is which I have setup both with Sling ID and IP search. For a while I thought I must be doing something wrong until I got my brother who lives over thousand miles away to see if he could find it with Sling ID and he did with no problem at all with his PC. When I do it I get connectin failed. It seams like it can't locate it. If you have any firewall suggestin for my mac but I have turned off the firewall completely. Update May 13: Able to narrow it down to be a software problem.
