I have been trying to watch the start of the race away from home, but failing miserably. Here, I have a 12MB DSL connection, and at home I have 25/3 cable, so I should have plenty of bandwidth on both ends, but when I connect, the video starts then runs maybe 30 seconds, locks up and gives a "We have detected that your Internet connection is insufficient for playing video. (Error 16)". If I hit the "MY DVR" button, then go back to "Live TV", it will reconnect, but then does the same thing. Lather. Rinse. Repeat. I even tried it on the lowest quality setting...but same thing.

Any ideas? I don't Sling very often...perhaps that is a good thing. :(
 
whats your upload speed and downgrade your quality...I never have success with auto!
 
I finally gave up a little while ago...besides lunch hour was about up. Hopefully it is still recording so I can watch it tonight. Upload speed at home is 3MB, and I did try taking it off "auto" as far down as the lowest quality setting, but even at that, it wouldn't last more than a minute. :(
