Have been digging a little more in the little time I have spare at the moment - Seems DNS blacklists/redirect are not fully successfull. Even though I have redirected the domains sling.com, slingbox.com and slingmedia.com to a local "HoneyPod" on my lan it still appears that the slingbox is trying to talk to 67.148.153.136 and 67.148.153.250 on the internet which it can not get to since I shutdown all internet...

I just blacklisted slingmedia.com and slingbox.com in my DNS so the boxes can not resolve it but that is pretty bad behavior for a company to do that! Source: over 1 year ago
This has become a little worse with the Slinger server, but I think this is an issue with the Slingbox itself as I see the issue with their application. But I see a lot of cases where the audio gets ahead of the video. Have others seen it? Or does anyone have solutions? One of the solutions on slingbox.com is to factory reset the box.

Also, after my first apparently failed attempt at trying a factory reset with no access to sling what I did was put the slingbox and a PC behind a cheapy old router I had so I could just unplug the uplink cable to make sure nothing was leaking up to the internet. Just concerned about what your router is doing when blocking "slingbox.com" does it just do a DNS lookup and block that IP? In my packet capture there's... Source: over 1 year ago

"Question 2: I bought two Roku Ultras" - You activate both Rokus on the same account on roku.com. I've had a Roku Ultra for some time and recently bought a Roku Express 4K for the guest bedroom for visiting relatives. When I activated the new Roku on my account it automatically duplicated all my apps on to the new one. But test each app, a few required me to log in on the new Roku. Source: over 1 year ago
Can something similar be done on roku.com? I tried following your steps for this video https://therokuchannel.roku.com/watch/67ca18fb4816521db4f188855569c21e but I noticed the type is not hls but mp4. There was a file that started with index instead of ending with index but much more complex then the sample video used in the example above. Source: over 1 year ago

Easier said than done with an elderly parent, but have your mom go to roku.com, reset her password, and give you the password. Then you should be able to go in and remove any payment method (presumably your PayPal), cancel any subscriptions, etc. Source: over 1 year ago
