As an employee of DISH Network I was able to purchase the Sling Adapter through DISH and setting up the app was easy and free. I am now able to do my traveling without missing any of my shows. I am able to set up my DVR recordings when I am out of town and also watch them. This is a great product for consumers and recommends it to anyone.

Due to the hard requirement of 720p, it's rarely possible to go beyond 30' distance and maybe the performance is even worse when it is blocked by wall. The data volume is huge for transferring HD video, some of the manufactures are dedicated to achieve this hard requirement, but it's either too expensive to adopt or not reliable. We have the solution for that. One more comment is about the limitation of this product, which is hard to elimiate technically.

If the ultimate goal is to support only one extra monitor or TV, it really not worthy to invest the money. However, IOGear's Audio/Video Kit supports multiple screens simultanously connected to the PC with only one sender and multiple receivers, right? With the ultimate goal to support future multi-media platform for home entertainment, a critical issue is urged to be resolved: although PC supports multiple displays at the same time, how about all the audio steams are conflict with each other? If we cannot separate the audio along with its correspondent video signal from others, how can we share the entertainment center among our family members? We have the solution for that.
