No WPS button on SKY+HD box

PatriciaJ — Sat, 15 Jan 2022 18:37:02 GMT

@JPR007 I am struggling to set up broadband wirelessly to my SKY+HD box because the box does not have a WPS button

How can I connect?

Yesterday somehow Netflix connected on my TV but now it doesn't.

Would really appreciate some help pn both issues as I am not technically minded and is taking ages to sort. Thankyou in advance

For sky+hd i think you need a sky usb wifi dongle s?501 that has a wps button. I think they aren't made anymore so ebay or amazon

@PatriciaJ

A Sky+ HD box without a WPS button doesn't have WiFi on-board. Sky used to supply external Mini Connect boxes which can now be found on eBay for about £10 (but note there are two different models: one is USB and one is ethernet).

@PatriciaJThink that is what you will find is where your Neflix is and the TV need connected to the internet if not already done.
