    Question about sling box

    ADVERTS 1
    Can I use a sling box to send my Dish HD signal from my receiver in the living room on the first floor of my house to my second HD TV in the second floor bedroom, and can it be done wirelessly?

    I believe so, but you should probably Google it to confirm.

    I do not think so. You would also need a SlingCatcher which is not wireless. If you want to do this you might also need a Slinglink (internet through electric wiring).

    It is possible that a Slingbox Pro HD and Slingcatcher would work wirelessly, but it would likely eat your wireless bandwidth alive unless you have a good wireless-N setup across the board.

    The specs on the Sling website indicate that 802.11n is "highly recommended" for wireless use of the Slingbox Pro HD.
