How to Watch ABC, FOX, NBC Abroad, Slingbox

By Nick | Jan 2, 2008

After moving to Germany, I’ve been looking for a solution to watch my favorite channels. As those who live abroad might have realized, you can’t easily watch ABC.com’s video on demand service without relaying your IP to somewhere in the USA. Though we are able to watch channels like comedy central, cbs, and spike tv from anywhere using instructions at this link, this still leaves a big gap.

The Slingbox
The best solution I’ve come up for this problem is the Slingbox. Basically, this device plugs directly into your existing internet connection and then into your cable tv box, dvd player, or even satellite box. Using a built in infra red device, it can control your dvd player, tv box, or any other device that use infra red.

Basically, this means being able to watch your favorite shows wherever you are. The biggest advantage such as the Slingbox is not needing to run a computer in order to use the device. On the downside, you will need to have a fast internet connection in order to run the Slingbox, sorry dial up users…

Heres a quick video of the Slingbox in action…
