"Sky box" and "mini" would lead to Sky Q. Is that correct @KimCrosbie ?

There is a mini box for Sky Plus that provides wifi thus the reason for the confirmation

Always thought that was called a wireless booster or some such, rather than 'minI' - I recall having one many years ago. Hence the question for confirmation.

That would be a Mini Connector (I've still got one!). It enables a wifi connection for older Sky+ boxes which don't have onboard wifi.

Yeah, great little things. It's been a while

since I had one. I don't recall it having a UI or saying it wasn't connected. Been a while though, like I said.
