It's also happened a few times while watching programs - get the circling buffer thing for about 20 seconds. Really kills the momentum of a movie. I've never experienced this while streaming HBO, Showtime or Netflix on their independent apps.

Also, I guess I'm too used to services like Netflix and my DVR. I was hoping Sling would have more on demand programing. I find very little. I also hate that the live streams most often will not let you pause or rewind.

Right now its not feeling like a good tradeoff from COX Cable with TIVO.

Anyone else experience the lost connections with Sling?

*I'm currently streaming on a Apple TV 4th generation.
By this time, I've tried all of the streaming services. PS Vue is the class of the field, with DVR capabilities and very capable On Demand. Connection issues do occur occasionally, but not during time of high traffic (think Game of Thrones season premiere or other special event). I'm on an Amazon Fire TV and it is, by far, my favorite service. Sling updated their interface, but the back end stuff still seems to be wonky.

You can always try a 7-day trial of PS Vue. Worth a shot. I do not miss my cable bill.
