Slingbox + WiFi = TV Everywhere

Monday, November 1, 2010

Here’s how the math works. First, we need to define the variables. A slingbox connects to your satellite TV system and your local area network to stream TV shows on your LAN. WiFi is your wireless network. TV Everywhere is what you get when you connect the two together. What this means is that with a slingbox and your wireless network connections, anywhere you’ve got a computer or other wifi enabled mobile device, you can watch TV.

Now anywhere your wifi signal reaches, whether it’s upstairs to the bedroom, downstairs in the basement, or even outside in the garage or by the pool, all you have to have is a slingbox to “sling” TV and something to “catch” TV and you won’t ever miss a single play during the big game again. Between using your DVR scheduler and the slingbox, even if you mount a tablet PC to your lawn mower, as long as your wifi signal will reach around your yard, you can even mow the yard and watch the big game or race at the same time.

Or if you need to clean the basement, or change the oil in your car, or if you simply want to relax by the pool, but you don’t want to miss that reality TV show or soap opera, or whatever important news story that may be on, all you need is a slingbox and something that’ll let you watch TV. Even your iPhone will let you stream TV to it. When it comes to where you can watch TV, the limits are only the extent of your wifi signal. And, if you have a wifi booster, then you can reach even further.

Thanks to the slingbox and wifi, you’ll never miss anything on TV again. You can even stream video off of your slingbox enabled DVR. With a few clicks of the remote, you can record the shows you want, and with a few more clicks of a mouse, you can watch it anywhere your wifi will reach. Ain’t technology grand??

Dish Network has the best deals on satellite TV anywhere. And with great equipment available like the Slingbox, Google TV and HD DVR's, you not only get great TV but excellent prices.
