I have been waiting for 3 years for Sling to come out with this software and I am sure they will release a version for the Storm soon, but I just had to test it now!
In order to successfully get this working I had to do the following:
- Upgrade the Storm to the leaked version of .85
- Download the file directly from Slingmedia, using their website autodetects your device and denies you access
- Setup the Slingbox for a Direct Internet connection through my firewall at home
Since I am an IT geek none of this was difficult for me, however, if you aren't tech savvy it may prove to be a challenge. I am not going to list any of the steps because it is all posted out there on other sites with detailed instructions for downloading the leaked OS, backing up your device, upgrading it and restoring the backup along with links to download the jad file directly from Sling and how to configure you Slingbox.
I tried to post a link to more info but my count isn't high enough.
Happy Slinging!
