I thought all Sling boxes do is send your programming from home through the internet?
I have a Sling Box and that's all it does. I think this is different.
I like my Sling Box but I used to like it more. That was before they started inundating users with ads.
The Sling Box is not related to Sling TV. Dish Networks parent company Echostar makes both devices. The Box is to see your TV service out of the house. The Internet website service is to stream cable from your internet connection with fewer channels and lower cost.
