I bit the bullet and bought a new Pro HD Slingbox after a firmware update Sling sent killed my last one.

I haven't been able to access it since last Wednesday afternoon. And I know friends who are in the same boat who are overseas.

Mine were working last night but I can't login again. Also Dish Remote Access is still down.

Sling admits there is an issue but dish is playing like there is nothing wrong and it's starting to piss me off.
