    It happened to me and a friend. I know slingbox shut down their forums because of all the complaints. They didn't want people seeing all the problems.

    [Edit] Oops, I checked your link above. I guess the forums are back.

    I just got tired of all the limitations Sling puts on their devices.

    After my SB Pro began to malfunction I decided to jump ship and got myself a Hava Platinum HD. Much, much happier. Can have more than 1 viewer. Can record and burn to DVD. Way easier to set up. Mobile player app is free, Slings is $30.

    Best of all, it's cheaper.
