Re: Hmmmm....

Aren't they supposed to work by accessing the IP directly ?
I think you can bypass the servers if you have the IP or Dyndns in place...For future products....well, that may be another thing.

Huh? Slingplayers don't connect to any servers. They act as servers. If you're on the same LAN they directly connect. If you want to access it from the web, you need to open a port on your firewall and you access it via your WAN IP.

Re: Hmmmm....

Hes talking about the Slingplayer DNS server. You know your SlingFinder ID? You Slingbox reports its IP address to a server Sling maintains. The Slingplayer connects to that server, and finds your IP from that Server based on your Slingfinder ID. He is talking about the ability to connect a slingbox via direct IP, which is also possible.
