Comments on: Could I get TV service through slingbox through my parent's satellite service and connect my computer to my tv? http://www.watch-satellite-tv-pc.com/blog/satellite-tv-computer/could-i-get-tv-service-through-slingbox-through-my-parents-satellite-service-and-connect-my-computer-to-my-tv Thu, 09 Feb 2012 02:23:32 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.7 hourly 1 By: Geoff S http://www.watch-satellite-tv-pc.com/blog/satellite-tv-computer/could-i-get-tv-service-through-slingbox-through-my-parents-satellite-service-and-connect-my-computer-to-my-tv/comment-page-1#comment-4104 Geoff S Fri, 29 May 2009 16:24:59 +0000 http://www.watch-satellite-tv-pc.com/blog/satellite-tv-computer/could-i-get-tv-service-through-slingbox-through-my-parents-satellite-service-and-connect-my-computer-to-my-tv#comment-4104 Yes it would. Although personally, I think it would be easier to just buy another dish and LNB and take that receiver over to your house and hook it up there. They say you have to have the phone line connected bla bla bla but experience says you can do without it. Just can't order any payperview movies unless you call it in for an additional charge. They'll never know the box isn't in the same house. Keep in mind too if you go the slingbox route, think of how much bandwidth it'll take up to send a decent picture and sound. 300 or 400kbps perhaps? That's a good chunk of most people's upload allocations.<br><b>References : </b><br> Yes it would.
