Before requesting help, please read these two articles from the Slingbox Knowledge base before posting questions. How can I tell if my Slingbox is set up correctly for remote viewing before I leave my home network ? The best way to know if you everything is working is via the SlingPlayer setup screen. You can only get to this screen if you're in the same home network as the Slingbox you want to check. Follow these steps: 1. Start the SlingPlayer application 2. Click on the menu item: View Slingbox Directory 3. Select the Slingbox that you want to test 4. Click on the "Edit Properties" button 5. Click on the "Slingbox Configuration" tab 6. In the Network Settings section, click the "Change..." button 7. After you enter your administrator password be sure you have checked the box for enabling remote viewing and click next. 8. Continue to click the "Next" button preserving all of your same settings until finally the Slingbox will report back to you whether it successfully received a remote connection. 9. If you see this screen, the chances are great ...

Any help is GREATLY appreciated!  A friend in Thailand let me test his remote for a while, and it worked just great over there.

I have a cupboard in the kitchen that houses our WiFi Router, Sky+ box with a phone line and all the aerials/coax running to TVs all over the house and to the sky dish. (We have to have SKY as there is not TV signal as we live in a dead spot) We bought a new LCD HDTV and the picture is rubbish due the the length of the analogue coax running from the kitchen cupboard to the digital TV in the living room. My thinking was to use 2 Slingboxes one connected to the sky box and the router (not using the WiFi Part) I would then connect the router to a Davolo dLAN 200AV creating a wired LAN to every power socket in my house. Here's the question! Would it be possible to connect another Slingbox to another Davolo dLAN 200AV in the Living Room and stream SKY from the kitchen cupboard to the Living Room TV? I see it's possible to stream sky to a PC anywhere in the house but to another TV? Please help!!
