muratremix Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Perhaps slingbox uses different bitrate and port when using mobile devices which is not blocked? If you want to bypass port blocking, your only option is VPN. True will not unblock ports for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muratremix Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 It is hard to find a good one but if you will use it on 384 kbit then any vpn should work. Try ibvpn for free 2 hours and look for other trial vpn providers before buy anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wpcoe Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Based on recommendations I read here a year or so ago, I subscribed to Strong VPN and have been satisfied with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
