Adding another sky+ box to current contract

Manicpob — Tue, 09 May 2023 11:51:14 GMT

Does anyone know how many sky+ boxes I can have in my home? Tried searching on Google and it's says 4. But I cannot see anything on Sky to confirm this.

Sky doesn't sell Sky+ boxes now so if you want extra you would need to upgrade to Sky Q.

@Manicpob it is unlikely sky will allow you to, as sky plus is now a legacy product, you would need to switch to q for additional boxes

You can buy your own used Sky+ box(es) cheaply from the likes of ebay, and use them to receive (not record) the free to air channels. You won't be able to buy an additional subscription to enable the recording feature or any subscription channels.

As to the number - the limiting factor is how many spare ports there are for use at the LNB (the bit on the arm of the dish where the cables connect). Each additional box will require a connection to one port. Obviously you'll need to install cabling from the LNB too.
