Now that you've done that, you're only part of the way there. You need to set the IP on the Slingbox (DO NOT use DHCP). The bridge is 'transparent'... you'll set up port forwarding to the Slingbox IP whatever that may be. The easiest thing to do (although not the most secure) is to make sure uPnP (Universal Plug'n'Play) is turned on on your Linksys box and then set the Slingbox to negotiate uPnP. It'll then set up port forwarding on it's own. Failing that, we need the model number of your linksys router to tell you how to set it up. It's NOT that hard and better to do it manually than to use uPNP.
kanebear - thanks - I now have my wireless bridge on the same network, and my Sling Box is "seen", but I still can't communicate to it.
My Wireless bridge has an IP of 192.168.1.200 and I can ping it, so that means I am on the same network
The Sling Box has an IP of 192.168.1.237
For the Port Forwarding I did what the Sling Instructions said, "Port 5001 - 5001 and IP Address of 192.168.1.237 - still no luck
I did try to port forward the Wireless Bridge, but I don't have a port, so I can't do that.
Any other help - please
