Good plan, but you need internet in both locations. I have Cable Internet in NY. I also have a Slingbox attached there. But I suspend Internet service when I come down here. It's Time Warner there and Comcast here. When I came down in Oct, I tried to suspend Comcast for two months (Nov-Dec) and they said minimum 90 days, once a year. That's why I'm looking at Dish. The Dish Network folks suggested the same solution, since Slingbox is built into their box. Unfortunately that means I have to pay for double Internet service. Up North I have 10Meg down, 1 meg up and I suspect it wouldn't work well anyway.
