Delve down to the more leftfield ones at the bottom of the EPG and things get fuzzy around the edges but, on the mainstream channels that you’ll likely watch 99 per cent of the time, quality is excellent, particularly on Sky’s own channels. I've no idea if the router uses a 'figure 8' ICE C7 cable but I will have a look. The second part of your reply looks hopeful so I'll do a search!

We dropped Sky years ago and honestly haven’t missed it. There is so much out there that it’s just not necessary to have a box broadcasting repeats and the occcssional good show. Yes. Many customers choose to self-install their mini boxes. The process is very straightforward and involves plugging in the box to the power supply and then connecting it to your main Sky Q box over Wi-Fi or ethernet cable. The process is explained below. Setting up and Connecting Sky Q Mini Box If you’re having trouble, here’s how to fix Sky Q connectivity problems. Why you get Sky Q connectivity problems Five stars?!? Really?! As good as television gets?!? Bullsh*t. You clearly didn't live with the box for any length of time or compare it to other services in terms of picture and sound quality. The box in its current form is not fit for purpose. Sound drop-outs, unusable apps due to buffering, awful picture quality, the list goes on. You're a mug if you think Sky's service is worth paying for. You can still extend the other side of the external PSU as described above because the transformer takes an IEC C7 plug.Sky seems particularly proud of its Fluid Viewing concept. This allows you to stop and start programmes as you move from one room or device to another, including from TV to tablet, inside to outside your home. Once done, you’ll see a screen that says Step 1 of 4 and has information on how to connect your Mini box to your Sky Q system. This should only appear for a few seconds, as the Mini box will detect the Ethernet connection and will find your Sky Q box on your network automatically.

We actually have no info on your particular device, but if you send me a clear photo of its spec label and DC input port I'll see if we have something suitable for you. Thanks @MightyQuinn. This is exactly what Sky are doing (sending me a new 2T box with power cable). The downside is that we'll have no Sky sports over the weekend unless it's delivered on a Bank Holiday! Each popular Sky TV show now has a ‘show centre’, too. This is a hub from which users can access all seasons, episodes, broadcast schedules and on-demand links, and these show centres even exist for certain Disney+ shows such as The Walking Dead and Loki. When you have an upgrade to Sky Q the Sky installer or indepdent satellite engineer will change your own quad LNB to a wideband LNB. Instead of doing this a dSCR LNB could be installed instead. There are a few models available but some have separate legacy outputs that will allow you to connect extra standard Sky or Freesat boxes. When you have the Sky Q box connected to the dSCR output on the LNB with a single cable. You need to set the Q box to single feed mode as described at the bottom of the blog. As it stands, the only way to use wireless is to use the Sky Q wireless mesh as set up during installation. This has both a 2.4GHz and a 5GHz network. In most cases, the 2.4GHz network is used to provide a wireless hotspot if you have Sky broadband, but it can also be used for TV data sent to the Mini boxes. Actual streaming takes place over the 5GHz network, as this has the required bandwidth.Remotes should not be stored in warm places. For example not on top of the Sky Box or other electrical equipment. They should be handled with care.
