Sky Stream Broken

Adz1998 — Thu, 03 Jul 2025 18:54:14 GMT

Got sky steam pick delivered today. Got stuck on the finding my status before I had even connected to wi-fi. Looked at troubleshooting and it said to do a factory reset and wait for light to go green.

light never went green it just went amber and red and then tried to install a software update. It tried to install the update and then displayed that it needs to restart, and goes back to trying to install the update. I've unplugged at the mains, I've reset the remote, but every time it comes up with trying to update.

help! I just want to send it back and cancel the whole lot.

@Adz1998 I believe this is a known issue that Sky are investigating, as you are about the 4th or 5th person to post about this problem in the last couple of days.

If you'd like, I can escalate this post to Sky's Messaging Team, so they can reach out and see if they can provide you with any more information on a workaround or a fix.
