Fantastic, I was ready to get rid of Sky, everything was ok when I had Sky broadband, as soon as I changed, everything goes wrong. I had tried everything, hard wired the Sky a box in, but the mini’s some how managed to switch my network setting back to Wi-Fi. Luckily, had a booster, the same as you, originally, caused all sorts of problems with locking up, had to switch it off. I’ve just set my system up, using your method, and it’s all working, on the 5ghz mesh.
Thanks for a fantastic video.
Cheers.

Great video ! I got Sky Q when first released - they plugged the booster at that time into the Sky mini box which didn’t make sense to me - at time I had BT Internet then went to Sky so didn’t need booster - changed back again recently and set up as per this video and the mesh is purring ! 😂

Mate, if this works I might have to send you a bottle of something nice. The BT v Sky Q issues are driving me round the twist! Had a booster from my old house too! So far so good! And it’s definelty a working as mesh network not sure what the other comment is about!

Great video, I have connected my sky booster to router by cable. But I don't need to do that to get my skyq boxes working, I want to improve the wifi signal as have poor wifi in a couple of rooms. Does the sky booster connected by lan cable to router improve normal wifi or does it only improve the sky q mesh wifi which I think only helps the q boxes communicate and does not work with other devices.

Hi wonder if you can help me. I have the main box and x1 mini box. I can hard wire the main box so what I've tried is hard wiring the main box then I manually find WiFi networks on the mini box and put in details from main router but it isn't a great connection. I've tried WPS main box and mini box but fail to get a connection on the mini box, any ideas? Thanks

Ok. In the room that I have the sky q mini I have a router that’s connected (long Ethernet) to the main router downstairs. But the sky q mini only connects to the downstairs router, which is the same router that the main q box is connected to. Is there a way to get it to connect to the router in my room for better service.

So, after you pair your closest mini box(your kitchen) when you go to your daughters room and press the button, do you need to then go back to the booster box and press it agin for each box?

I did this with a newer booster, the main sky box could not hold a connection to the BT hub for more than about a minute. The router was only about 15 feet away from the main sky Q box. with no walls, although, there was a cordless phone near the router so I'm not sure if that was interfering with the 2.GHz Two calls to sky and we couldn't resolve it. This works, it was in a large house with 4 TV's and 3 boosters. Thanks.

[lewisroberts]

How do you get it to show up as 5ghz, mine shows up as 2.4ghz. is there a way to select 5ghz

[martinbradley]

So this all set up with BT Broadband as your main ISP? And you connect boxes etc to the Sky booster??

[Griffomedia]
