I understand, I had the same problem with my Sky Q system, the main satellite box is in my bedroom, the other 2 mini boxes are in the downstairs bedroom and my the living room. I have no problem my main Sky Q system, but the 2 mini boxes keep losing the TV signal, I try calling Sky TV for better part of a week with no luck, so yesterday I got a network cable and plug the mini box in the bedroom into my router, so far it working fine, I'm very disappointed in Sky after being a loyal customer for over 20 years. Best of luck with your Sky Q.

The Sky Q pixels is absolutely brutal when I joined up for it, but I left them and now I have a firestick with all their channels in HD and lots more than what sky deliveres, cinema movies boxsets all for €70 a year. Internet hassle free no more annoying cables! ☺👍

I'm a bit skeptical about the Sky Q box. I think Sky have been overselling them to customers when the technology is still not the finished article. Many people have been throwing out their old Sky Boxes thinking that the Sky Q box is better, it's not their fault, Sky has just not been advising people properly. All they care about is just pushing the boxes. I was going to get Sky Q box myself but then I found out the dish I have, which is a communal one is not compatible with Sky Q, which is ridiculous. There are adaptors they can try out, as I have been told but there's' no guarantee they will work. Again, this is a joke, especially considering that the Q box is supposed to be internet-based and not require a dish anyway but they still do.

Yes they are like many large companies these days they do not want to talk to clients, its look on line at almost every stage, but I did get through to a woman who I had some diff understanding, who has arranged a revisit tomorrow the 24.11.20. Not that I am confident it will be fixed, ie picture freezes randomly for 10 or 20 seconds, and this is with a booster they gave us yesterday at end of install of new Q & 3 miniQ,s Im piised of to put it mildly as the old sky box had no signal issues, he put the new dish & LNB,s higher got good signal, but its freezing, never did this on old box. The number I contacted Sky on is 03442414141, hope that helps someone else in same annoying position.

Hi it might be the power cables, optical or rca's of other devices being to close to your sky q box power cable. That what happens with my little multiroom box. I just moved them. I have used another power cable for my sky box. Hope that helps you. Cable interfaces happens. Sweet TV, hope you can get the box working again

It works fine in the living room because that’s the main box that has a card inside. The one in the bedroom is running off WiFi and this is what’s annoyed me, if I’d have known this was the case I’d have kept Sky +

I had the mini box installed last night and I’m having the same problem. I’ve spent half the night watching a blue screen and frozen images. I’ve swapped a perfectly good sky+ box with a card to a piece of plastic that feeds off WiFi. I feel like I’ve sold a car for a skateboard
