Sling Media's been changing things up on their website, which now includes the online player from Sling.com so you can watch your Slingbox AND and the finished version of an online tool to setup your Slingbox. I'm curious if any of you have tried it out and what your experiences was.
Comments about the online setup tool? Post them below.

Found 2 major problems :
1. If the Device is turned off or on Standby the 'Next' button is disabled so unlike within Slingplayer Setup Assistant you cannot continue with the Setup.
2. You can only configure supported devices. There is no option to select 'Other' and a Custom Code.
USA Slingbox Classic, UK Slingbox Classic, USA Slingbox Solo, 2 x SlingCatcher, Slingplayer 2.0.3 on 3 PCs, Slingplayer Mobile on a Nokia N73 and waiting patiently for Slingmedia to support my Nokia N5800
Pretty sad when less than a third of people could set up there product. Even worse when almost as many could not get it to work.
