  • DISH Network Introduces America's First True TV Everywhere Offering
    DISH Network Introduces America's First True TV Everywhere Offering Newly-Introduced Sling Adapter Allows Live TV Viewing on iPhone®, iPad™, Android™ and BlackBerry® Devices ENGLEWOOD, Colo., Nov. 18, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- DISH Network L.L.C. today became the first pay-TV provider in America to introduce a true TV Everywhere™ offering, giving DISH Network subscribers the ability to watch all of their live and recorded television programs on compatible smartphones, tablets and laptops. DISH Network subscribers can access these features when they download and use the DISH Remote Access application in concert with their broadband-connected, Sling®-enabled receiver. (Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20101118/LA04649) (Photo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20101118/LA04649) "DISH Network is proud to be the first pay-TV provider to bring our customers the ability to enjoy their TV anywhere, anytime on a variety of popular devices," said DISH Network Chief Marketing Officer Ira Bahr. "Unlike mobile viewing from cable and telcos that limit access to select programs, our TV Everywhere services give consumers 24 x 7 access to all of the live and recorded content included with their DISH Network programming subscription." Introducing Sling Adapter To enjoy the live viewing capability of DISH Remote Access, consumers need to be DISH Network subscribers and have a Sling- enabled device such as the newly-released Sling Adapter™— a small placeshifting device that pairs with DISH Network's ViP® 722 or 722k HD DVRs. With a Sling Adapter, customers can then view their high-definition or standard-definition DISH Network programming, including live and recorded shows, on compatible mobile devices or laptops.

  • DISH Network Sling Adapter by Sling Media – by Scot Greczkowski
    SatelliteGuys.US – FIRST LOOK – DISH Network Sling Adapter by Sling Media – By Scot Greczkowski Proudly Presents: FIRST LOOK – DISH Network Sling Adapter by Sling Media I feel that one of the greatest inventons of the 21st century has been the Slingbox, it is one of my favorite electronic gadgets that I seem to use on an everyday basis. With a Slingbox it makes the promise of TV Everywhere a reality. With a Slingbox you can truly watch you television programming anywhere you have an internet connecton. And with the advent of the Slingbox it made it easy to take your TV Everywhere with you… and now DISH Network makes it even easier! With an old fashioned Slingbox setup was simple yet at the same tme it was also cumbersome for many. You frst had to hook the Slingbox up to your satellite receiver, you then had to hook it up to your TV, you had to plug in and aim IR remote blasters and you had to program the Slingbox sofware to be able to control your satellite receiver. With the new Sling adapter it’s much easier to setup. (Do not eat, its not a Eggo Wafe, its a DISH Sling Adapter!) SatelliteGuys First Look Series – Copyright 2010 SatelliteGuys.US – Page Number 1 SatelliteGuys.US – FIRST LOOK – DISH Network Sling Adapter by Sling Media – By Scot Greczkowski Basically you plug the ultra slim Sling Adapter into your 722 or 722k’s USB port and your done! No IR blasters and no programming your receiver to work. If you have not hooked up broadband to your 722 or 722k yet there is one more step you will need to make (besides hooking the receiver to broadband) and that is actvatng your receiver online.
