Haven't used this gadget yet, but I have read some troubleshoot points that might be relevant to your issues:

1 - Does the Sling Player recognize the Slingbox Solo?
Some firewall security software blocks the Slingbox from being recognized on your home network. If this occurs, you need to change your security software settings to see the Slingbox as a device on your network.

2 - The Setup Wizard and the SlingPlayer application are not controlling
your device:
Make sure the remote control IR cable is fully inserted.
Move the emitters to a different location on the front of your Satellite box or DVR.

Hope this helps.
If not, give us more information and attach some screen shots.

Apparently your box code is the same as the MVision MV-9085.
