About 10-20 some rooms below 5-10 but now it seams to have gotten higher as all the sky q and boosters have connected and it has sort of settled in. In some rooms we have up to 50-56 (which is what the super fast boost is meant to be) however in my room it is normally bellow 20. Most rooms are 30. It has a good reach for the size of our house.

An update: currently on 70mb when your near the router and we have just been offered fibre to the home which will bring speeds up drastically (1000+mb possible) and allow more devices to be connected at once which the copper cables struggled to do. Can’t believe this video almost has 100k views!

Until yesterday when I come home from work to find that the app is not connected to hub. I've tried connected it but for some reason it won't connect. I received notification saying my hub is set on factory reset default. Don't understand because all devices in the house are connected to hub.

Crazy to think this is 4 years old and it was the latest sky router...Yet I have only just been sent one of these in the past couple of months despite being a sky customer of 18 years....Not only that..I had to BUY myself the previous "lastest router" ER115 (within the past 6 months) off ebay because I had not been sent one of those either....I was still having to use the old SR101...As it is the SR203 (shown here) doesn't give be the same speed as the ER115 (cabled as I don't use a wifi conection.)..so I went back to the ER115....The speed is rubbish btw...well less than 10 mbps dl (just checked it's 6.2 ) and only about 2 mbps up.

They guaranteed speeds but after s few months they speed and stability degrades in time.

It really depends on where you live, sky is much cheaper than virgin and if you have unstable speeds sky should refund you. I am not an expert so i don’t know. However you will get big discounts if your with sky mobile which we have and is a very good 4G provider, better than EE which we used to have and this will give you discounts the longer you have it.

Hi, as an elderly gentleman, what is the process involved to get Sky Q Box to talk to Router, or am I missing something?
@everythingcubed4210
@everythingcubed4210 3 жыл бұрын
It is very simple, all you need to do is hold the WPS button on both devices and after a few minutes when both lights are green you should be good to go. :) Another way (the proper way) is to go into settings and make sure that the network connection is ticked, if not then you can re-do the network connection. Also it is always worth to do that even if it is ticked if your internet speed is slow in it, the Sky Q box will act as a range extender when connected, if you didn’t know that already. If the router is far away, you might want to bring it closer to the SkyQ hub if you have any closer telephone cables nearby, eventually we had sky put a ethernet (copper cable) down from where the router is located to where the sky Q hub is located. So then the SkyQ hub would have a hard wired stable and very fast speeds the same as you would get if you were close by to the router, this also allowed us to connect our TV, sounbar and any other devices like a game console in. Hope this helps!

I think you should get a sky engineer to come around after the virus or attach your xbox through Ethernet directly from your router or booster. You can do this either by moving your router, getting somebody to install a Ethernet cable. Sometimes it can just take a few days to for the router to get familiar. What are your speeds around your house, what is your house size, how does it cope with other things like KZbin and what model is your Xbox? Hopefully this helps.

I think it sometimes depends on which plan you are on. Hopefully you enjoyed the video. If you did then be sure to like and subscribe because literally only 1% of people watching our videos are subscribed :( if you have any more questions then be sure to just say!

I saw the router on amazon for £99.99 and was confused on either of it was free or not, I’ve tried to contact sky but with the new COVID-19 rules it suggests that I don’t phone them but to use the app but didn’t help - What is the plan you purchased called ?

The one from before was super fast fibre but they changed the naming so now it’s super fast and the other option for lower speeds is essential or something like that. It is also based on your time and loyalty with sky. Perhaps sky are not as able to help at the moment. If you liked the video then be sure to like and subscribe!

An ethernet cable isn't included? That's pretty stingy of Sky. So Sky are assuming that all their new broadband customers, or the majority of them, will be using WiFi. If there's no computer shop in someone's nearest town, that means that they'll have to travel miles and miles just to get an ethernet cable. Then again, I suppose you could just buy one before switching ISP, just in case your next chosen ISP doesn't provide one.

There is amazon, where you can get a cable within days + usually people would have many Ethernet cables, for we have about 20 things plugged into ethernet right now. I suppose sky might have changed now and provide an Ethernet depending if your a new customer or not.

I definitely think you can as long as it has the same ports on the ends then it doesn’t matter what colour the cable is : black, yellow, purple it will all work Mabey some better than others but it should be fine. If this still isn’t possible to connect a wire from your router / sky boxes / any company then it can just be wireless. I see that you seem to have gotten the hang of it but if you have any questions then I’m happy to reply :) so are you on sky then? How’s it doing for you? What’s your settup like? Do you have like the sky mini boxes or another kind of provider? and others if you wish. Did you rerember to subscribe? ;) what speeds do you have on what plan?

For the speed and rubbish router you get, sky is over priced. With BT I get 70 Meg down and 20 Meg up, 2 mobiles with 3 & 8GB of data, a free WiFi hotspot if my WiFi goes down and unlimited data for free too if that happens, BT Sports for half price, and landline anytime unlimited for £30 a month. BEAT THAT SKY!!!! I’ve had BT for 15 Years now and the price is always the same. We also got a free Amazon echo dot too when we renewed our contract. My grandparents had sky and nothing but problems with price speed and signal. They live In a two bedroom flat and couldn’t get signal in the kitchen which is the room directly behind the router! Our BT Smart hub gets us signal across the road at the neighbours and if it breaks, they’ll send a brand new one for free next day delivery. Sky in all are a rubbish company. Try and see if you stick with them any more than 2 years before you start paying double what you signed up for.

Also another reason why we go with sky is because we have been a customer of theirs for many years so that we get great deals, and we already have sky hardware, fun fact the sky Q box acts as a range extender when connected to your Sky Broadband if you have it, that is why we have it hardwired as we get the same speeds from the router (which is far away from the box) into our living room, which is really great. Same with the sky mini Q box, if you also have that.

We didn’t buy it because sky have loyalty benefits, we phoned them because the older sky Q broadband router wasn’t doing us any good, additionally we are on sky because of how all of the products work together as a mesh network - so the router is connected to an Ethernet cable to a downstairs sky Q (video) box which emits a wifi signal that seamlessly connects, same with the Sky Q mini and all of our boosters outside and in dead spots. We’ve been happy and we’re glad we have been able to get these ~50 speeds across our entire home in a remote village on copper cables. Whatever floats your boat.

Not sure which part you are referring to but it tends to go up and down depending on the router location and amount of people using it, with our current placement of the router and booster, without many devices using it you will find over 50 speeds in the main rooms and 30 or more in corners of the house, if lots of people are using it then it’s like around 20+
