Cannot get mini to connect asking for same network setup as main box

Hi guys, swapped over a dodgy Bt Smarthub2.Connected main box fine and another mini box,really struggling with the other.It won't go past step 2 of 4 after wps buttons are pressed.Decided to go into network setup and it's asking me to setup like the main box by selectingWi-Fi from another provider.Is this correct,I thought it would come up with a reset option

hi @hammerjeff

the minis do not connect to your BT wifi but a wifi generatd by the main box

So if a mini is asking you to press a WPS button it is the on the SKY Q main box not BT router

@nigea99 cheers mate but was pressing the Sky q main box wps,given up after 5 retry's and watching Grand Prix.That's why I didn't proceed with the setup on the mini in case it screwed everything up.
