So I can get the SLINGBOX to work via XBMC, but I still have problems. Let me be clear IT IS FUNCTIONAL, but will not stay that way.
1) After using the built in setup routine for the slingbox, to kick the slingbox into internet mode. Said internet mode only lasts a few hours. I set the PORT and the SLINGBOX address. Then I double check the router is opening the port for UDP and TCP communication, and it is.
2) Then I have to go back into the slingbox and reset it to internet mode. If I loose connectivity. Lucky I can, as I have remote access to a PC on the remote slingbox network. And I use that to reset the slingbox.
3) My slingbox is remote two states over at my girlfriends house.
So whay am I loosing connectivity through the internet? I have another slingbox application (JAKSTA) that will remotely connect at any time. And gives me no grief. Theis other application just keeps working.
