Intermittent on demand fail

Duncan-58 — Thu, 25 Jul 2024 10:49:39 GMT

I have an old sky+hd box, recently on demand will not connect between 5/6pm and midnight and work normally through to 5/6pm when again it will fail. My Input network ID/Transport Stream wull also change - first 4 digits are always 0002/last four will ch6ange fron 0802, 0810, and ( 07d4 which is the one that works up to 5/6pm. It seems more than a coincidence that shortly after I was notified HD+ would no longer be supported that I have this problem. I have tried switching router and box off numerous times and rechecked my router connection. My wifi runs at well over 100mps. Anybody any glue as what's happening

Many Thx

If it was anything more than a coincidence there would be numerous posts reporting the same problem., and there haven't been.

Is your Sky box connected over wifi, or ethernet?

I am connected via WiFi, the fact that its works perfect from midnight to 5/6pm every day shows that I am connected correctly. I have steady Internet speed of 100++ through the evening. Wgen I spoke with Sky I was advised no support coukb ve offered to repair but I could sign up for new Q box with additional mini box, to which I agreed as no other option
