Easy to setup and use

Posted by: mbotticello from Pittsburgh, PA on 05/15/2013The slinbox 500 with WiFi was so easy to setup and use...there really was nothing to it. Very convenient with the WiFi as a hard line is not needed. My boss used it from his IPad on the beach in Cayman Islands to watch a Penguins hockey game and it was very good quality!
I recommend this for anyone on the road a lot.

Posted by: TropicalHerman from Missouri on 05/07/2013Pretty good item. Somewhat time consuming to set up (1-2 hours). Depending on you internet speed, you probably will have some annoying lag while watching TV.

Posted by: aggie52 from Honolulu on 05/03/2013Very satisfied with this product. If your TV and receiver are on Energy Saving Mode, make sure you change this so that the receiver stays on for as long as you need it.

My lifeline
5
Posted by: MrDaddy from Iowa on 04/26/2013After 50+ years of being a dedicated "cheesehead", I recently moved from Wisconsin to northwestern Iowa due to a change in jobs. The idea of not being able to see my beloved Brewers, Packers, Badgers and Marquette Warriors (sorry...I can't accept the Golden Eagles moniker) was intolerable. The Slingbox 500 was a perfect solution. I hooked it up to one of my cable boxes back in Wisconsin, and now I can view all my TWC programming in HD on my laptop. The Slingbox has become my "lifeline" back to my home state of Wisconsin. I don't know what I'd do without it!

Posted by: Olytech from Deer park, tx on 04/19/2013Was very excited to get this from my wife for my birthday. Spent an hour trying to get it to work on 3 different tv before using online tech support they spent another hour trying to set it up remotely, as I did they were only able to view the video on the tv. Once they tried to view the video on the internet I would lose video on the tv and they would get a connection error on the inter net. I was very disappointed. You also have to purchase the app for your phone and tablet. I have droid phone, ipod, and ipad so I would have had to make at least 2 app purchases. If I'm going to spend $300 on a product I don't want to haber to purchase apps to use my product.
