Jet II, "recording" from the Slingbox via a third-party app is still a streamed connection. The Slingbox doesn't know the data is being recorded. If it won't stream remotely, it won't record remotely either. However, the viewer application is quite good at working out what bandwidth is available to it. The main thing is to not try and force a 640x480 resolution since the 1 Mbps service won't be up to it.
On the UK side, bear in mind that "up" bandwidth on an ADSL connection may be only one eighth of the "down" bandwidth, and the Slingbox will be consuming "up" bandwidth and quota.
(Hey, you're paying nearly twice as much as me for 1% of my bandwidth. Where's the "gloat" icon when it's needed?
