Sling Media Router SB260-100 User Manual

Connecting the Slingbox to your home network

The Slingbox works with any high-speed Internet connection or broadband home network. You must have a 

router to use the Slingbox. The Slingbox comes with an Ethernet cable. If it’s not long enough to reach your 

router, you can use a longer cable, or one of the optional connections shown on page 81.

What you need to get started:

• A high-speed Internet connection using a cable or DSL modem if you plan to view your Slingbox remotely.

• A router, so the Slingbox and your computer can access the Internet separately.

See “Optional networking connections” on page 81 if your Slingbox is not within Ethernet cable reach of your 

router.

1. Connect the supplied Ethernet cable to the Network connector on the Slingbox.

2. Connect the other end to an available port on your router or a nearby Ethernet jack.
