I haven't used my slingbox in at least a year or more; have they updated it to where you can log into it via HTTP without client software installed, using Flash or Java or something? Phillip Partipilo Parametric Solutions Inc. Jupiter, Florida (561) 747-6107

That way, you are only using your internal bandwith and you don't have to worry about your external bandwith? Is this just for your local school, or the entire district?
