Thanks fellas, it is not DOA. I can connect via ethernet fine. I can 'see' my recordings and live TV, some of the time, through the Dish Network website/sling interface. There is no option to watch content on the PC, only watch on TV. So, if I select a recording or live TV, the receiver changes channels but I see no option to watch anything on the TV.
With my iPad, when it does connect, I can 'see' live TV and my recordings, but when I try to play them, I get an error along the lines of invalid targetID or something. For the last 6 hours, when I try to launch the DN/sling app, it thinks my receiver is not online even though it is.
Thanks Matthew, will PM you the information.
I've been with DN for over 12 years so I know the CSR's are clueless, but they are absolutely worthless when it comes to helping with the sling adapter. All I've gotten was script reply's.
