We have done this, before we bought here and were renting.
I do not know what I am talking about though so I just asked Mr. Laurie.
He said you can just plug your laptop into the television. You need a good broadband connection at both ends.
If the power goes out at your source, if the router does not reset itself, as it should, then someone would have to reset it.
All we bought was the Slingbox. Once you have it set up, you can watch it on anything. We got it because I wanted to access recorded shows from home.
Hope this helps. Our Slingbox is kind of old. Things might be different with what is available now.
