Replaced my streaming services from Sony Blu-Ray. Compared with the built in apps on the Blu-ray player, this thing is fast! It instantly loads shows from Netflix, Hulu Plus and so on. Very simple to use, has not frozen in the 3-4 weeks of daily use.
My main gripe is the the remote is RF not IR. So I can't use my older Harmony One remote with it, I would have to upgrade my remote. I will probably do it one day. But for now using the original Roku remote has been a good experience.
Connected instantly to my WiFi.
I have this plugged into my receiver instead of my TV and that is working well.

Does the streaming stick HDMI version, have Slingbox as one of the apps it works with?
I have an old Roku, and it does'nt have Slingbox as one of its apps, to click on.
The streaming stick will allow you to view your slingbox.

Will it work on a password protected internet?
Chomcast stopped working after my wi-if was secured again! Hoping this will work with a secure wireless connection!
This works great with secured WiFi connections.

Does the Roku stick have a stronger signal range than the original unit I purchased?
It may, but it will more than likely be about the same. You would need to upgrade your router or get a repeater for a stronger signal.
