8: Setup and Installation Assistance

This appendix provides additional setup and software installation information not covered in Chapters 1 and
2.

Network Connections

Follow the instructions in this appendix if the typical setup is not possible in your home, or if you want to use
optional connections that may make setup simple for you. Also, if you have more than one router in your
home, you may need to adjust your network setup to use Slingbox.

SlingPlayer Software Installation

The Setup Wizard and SlingPlayer application automatically discover Slingbox on your home network.
Certain personal firewall security software may block this process or categorize Slingbox as an
"intruding device." If this occurs, you need to change your security software settings to allow Slingbox as a
device on your network. See page 91 for information about adjusting your firewall software settings.
This appendix also provides information about resetting your Slingbox to its factory settings.
