Can my 722k receiver be connected thru wifi (wireless connection) to use the sling or does it need to be connected to Internet via wired connection?

Yes, the 722k can be connected via wifi to use the sling adapter. That's how my 722k is connected.

I don't know because I don't have Uverse TV. But if you have an HDMI output on your Uverse, you can connect it. I run Slingbox to my kindle fire and wirelessly connect using an HDMI dongle through mirracast. Don't know if that helps.

Just Internet access, wi-if or Ethernet. Then the apps available from sling box.com or just use the browser option on a laptop.

If you have changed your DirecTV receiver to use RF communication for the remote control (instead of the default IR) then your Slingbox will _not_ be able to control your DirecTV receiver at all (therefore your receiver will need to be on _and_ on tuned to the channel you'll want to watch remotely). If your DirecTv receiver is still setup (as it was out of the box) to use IR, then the Slingbox _can_ fully control it (power on/off, change channels, etc).

I would stay away from this model RD-7405HDR receiver. The sound quality lacked and was not good when compared to Pioneer or Sony receivers. The answer is NO. It does not have WiFi for wireless speakers.

This is an accessory to a Dish subscription. The Sling adapter will stream your content from a compatible Dish receiver. From my experience you will want to use a wired ethernet connection to your Dish receiver while using the Sling adapter to get a constant HD stream.

Probably will not work. In my experience, Slinglink only works for Dish Network applications.

No it does not require internet or 'wifi'. This uses a wireless connection from the camera to the receiver. The receiver then attaches to your tv or monitor via a rca video connector. The camera and receiver both need to be plugged in to AC power though, so it is not completely wireless.

Only if you have a sling box player device like a Tablet, PC, or Mac feeding the signal to the TV . I don't know if player software exists for other players like Apple TV or Roku.

I don't know but $300 is a ripoff. As you say, no wifi or HD means this should be $150 in my opinion. Its a freakin' accessory and not a Slingbox. Bad move Sling.

I doubt this will work, the Dish receiver usually won't let you do anything without active service. That being said, why not just use the tuner built in to your TV? another option would be to buy a stand alone sling box.

Not that I know of maybe you have a friend with a sling box (cable or sat also needed on there end) I have live tv on my pc with one. That's the only way to get live tv with Internet. Some of thouse station will have some stuff on there sites. But that way kinda sucks. Hope this helps

Slingbox has a bare bottom data rate of 69Kb/s which is 13Kb/s greater than the max theoritical capablity of dial up service 56Kb/s and you never ever get that much out of your modem. It will not work on dial up with video. You could try manually setting manual stream parameters to 50Kb/s with Video frames per second to 1 (so a still frame once a second) but I don't expect good results. The only other option is audio only (no pictures) which operates at about 20Kb/s which should work on dial up. Please keep in mind that most Wireless and cable network systems will get you at least the 70Kb/s required on the receiver. Upload requires at least 250Kb/s to make it work. The sling box only works in NTSC or HD 1080i or720p (US, Canada, Japan etc) on the transmit side but it doesn't care at all where it is on the receive end, as long as it has enough bandwidth. Hope this helps

Slingbox won't work, or at least not very well, on a dial-up connection. This applies for both the sending and the receiving end of things.

I managed to connect with wifi-n. The problem is the TV is very slow and it's preferable to add a third party streamer.

Ethernet or you can use a wireless router connected to the Ethernet port on the AV receiver. I got the Linksys Wireless-N router, Model WET610N and it works great.

In general Slingbox is a peer to peer (point to point) connection such than only one connection is allowed. Sling does not stream to the internet, but streams only from point A to point B. So only one device at a time can use the Sling connection. That device may be in the next room or hundreds of miles away.
