Got this router to replace an older router that was having trouble keeping up with the ever growing number of connected devices in our home and streaming bandwidth. It was easy to set up and not only gave us a speed boost, signal strength on all the floors is improved as well.

Great android tablet

Verified Purchase:Yes
I love the size. It's small enough to be comfortable to hold for hours of internet tasks but with a screen that is large enough, sharp enough, and bright enough to make viewing a pleasure. I have a Nexus 7 as well but the Nexus 9 gets used the most.

Great piece of technology for the traveler

I use it in...:Large home
Verified Purchase:Yes
Love that I can travel and still watch my home DirecTV including shows I'v recorded. The equipment/technology is great but be aware that it's performance is totally dependent upon the quality of the media source and, above all, the internet connection both outbound from the Slingbox and inbound to your remote viewing device.

How is the quality of the picture/sound?
The quality is totally dependent upon the speed and quality of the internet connection at the source (Slingbox) and destination (remote viewing device). That said, I am in Virginia, my Slingbox is in Minnesota, the upload rate in MN is ~ 5Mbps and the download rate in VA is ~20Mbps and the video/sound quality is full HD.

Can you edit the playlist on your dvr with the sling box?
My Slingbox 500 is connected to a DirecTV Genie DVR. I can do everything remotely that I can do when I'm sitting at home in front of the system. In my setup, when I connect remotely I have full access all of the DirecTV remote control functions so I can stream anything in my playlist, delete anything in my playlist, fast forward, rewind, pause, add new shows to record, etc.

Does the box use home internet data when watching the slingbox from another location?
I live in Alaska, and we don't have unlimited internet like there is in the Lower 48 states. If my husband is out of town for work, in the lower 48, and accesses the slingbox, of course he will be using the internet in his location. However, during the time that he is watching our DVR, would our data usage at home, where the slingbox is connected, go up as well?
Yes, When your husband connects remotely, he connects to your Slingbox at home. The video stream originates from your Slingbox (uploads) and terminates at his remote viewing device (downloads). So, your data upload at your home will go up significantly when he uses the Slingbox for remote viewing.
