ok I have finally learned how to use an ftp to access my iphone . I have added the string for my slingplayer into the dynamic libraries and have rebooted the phone. When I try to connect to the sling box it acts like it does not have internet. the voip3g is probably working because I do not get the needs wifi error. It just acts like it cannot find the internet or like the internet is too slow. it works fine on wifi but not over the voip3g. I am running 2.2.1 on a jailbroken phone. I am new and it took me most of the day to get the string into the right place. I downloaded it after just to check it was still there and it was. Any and all help is appreciated because I really don't have a clue. thx

just go into cydia and install Tricker ThreeG

So much better, no editing or any configuring

I dont get it I can get online using safari without wifi and the sling works on wifi so why doesn't it work with tricker. I have installed and uninstalled 3 times and turned off the iphone everytime. If anybody has any ideas let me know.

finally figured it out and I am posting hopefully to help someone with the same problem. The reason I could get the sling to work on wifi was because I was on the same network as the slingbox. I had a port problem and did not know it. When I tried it on a different wifi network it did not work. Fixed the port problem for remote viewing and now it works. So if you sling works on wifi and not on the 3G try it on a different wifi network and see if it works If it does not, thats your problem. thx to everbody that helped me now if I could get this thing to quit optimizing I might be able to watch something
