I am not very knowledgeable about spelling knowledgeable or networks. I know that viewing my slingbox remotely means the picture will be reliant on the speed of my internet connection. My question is what is the bottleneck? Is it usually a WiFi/Hotspot speed issue? Is the router? Is it my ISP? If it's as simple as getting a better router, great I'll do it. If I need a faster ISP, I could check the cost. My download speed I just did is 15.74Mbps and upload was 0.48Mbps. I assume that if I can stream good quality video from other sources, I should be able to get good quality video from the slingbox, no?
