Slingplayer won't launch properly in Vista Home Premium

I have a Slingbox which works perfectly on a Windows Mobile device, a Vista Business PC and a XP PC but on the same wireless router the application only launches in processes. If I try to connect to it after that it says that it is already running unless I stop it in Task Manager.

Have installed and reinstalled (Firewalls disabled of course) the latest (UK) software all to no effect.

Also tried right clicking, running as administrator and disbaled User Account Control.

It's obviously something to do with the specific PC setup but what???

Cannot connect remotly to the slingbox

Hi! I will be more than glad to assist you in this concern. please check this first at your sisters house..
If you are at home of your sister and are not seeing your Slingbox in the SlingPlayer Slingbox Directory, one of two things are going on:

1. The Slingbox is not properly connecting to your router.
2. You have security software on your computer preventing it from talking to the Slingbox.
3. The network connection to your Slingbox is broken.

If the issue is that the Slingbox is not properly connecting to your router, the network light on the front of the Slingbox will either be off or be blinking.

If the network light on the front of your Slingbox is on, then the issue is probably virus or firewall software.

Your Slingbox is all set up, the Network light is on and still you can't find it in your Slingbox Directory in SlingPlayer.

Most of the time if you are at home and in this situation, the problem can be narrowed down to one of the following:

* Your router or router configuration has changed since you plugged in your Slingbox.
* Security software on your computer is preventing your Slingbox from communicating with your computer.
* You've more than one router on your home network.
* You've accidentally connected your computer to your neighbor's wireless network.

If you are using a router on the home network, routers have a built in firewall and in this case. The Slingbox uses port 5001 when it communicates with your router, so this port needs to be open for your Slingbox to send video outside of your network.

please feel free to get in touch if u have any question..
