Re: slingbox can connect via wifi but not data connection =(
Is the WiFi on the same network as the Slingbox? If so, you probably need to forward the port to the Slingbox.
If your WiFi is being broadcast from the same router than the Slingbox is connected to, then you are on the same LAN as the Slingbox. In that case, it's not a matter of it only working through WiFi (as WiFi won't work either if you go to any other location and use their WiFi). It would be a matter of the firewall in your router filtering out, or blocking the traffic on the port your Slingbox is using.
Just set up port forwarding in your router. Make sure you have the correct port forwarded to your Slingbox (you can set the port it is using).
