as far as I can figure, the Hava/N800 connection is a remote connection hence you bump into the 1 remote connection limit. your N800 is going out over the internet and contacting their P2P server. this would affect any "non local subnet" viewing of your hava. there might be some hack way around this but I think maybe they hard coded their P2P address into the client.

according to their website, local discovery of the unit is being done as a udp broadcast. they don;t do things the "slingbox way". with slingbox, they seem to use the IP address for remote connections and you can directly connect to it even over the internet using DynDns.

used my N800 extensively over the weekend on the road using poor wifi connections and the quality was still very good. a few times this weekend, got messages saying their p2p server was down which is not so good.

personally, I think Hava has hit a homerun w/ this 1st implementation of their client for the n800. for basic functionality, it is rock solid. however, some of the ways the do things is "quirky".
