I have 1 2TB main box and x2 mini q boxes , reading Sky's words it read like you can have 4 BUT in reality i think you can only run 2 at the same time, I had got them for 2 guest rooms and of course many problems as we hacve 4 boxes ...as Free Sat i was using have stopped transmitting in standard defination only HD so lost BBC etc , what options do i have , as need new tv's for Free Sat , or disconnec the other 2 boxes mini boxes OR somehow use 2 main boxes ? TIA

Hi @glen67

Afraid only one main Q box is permitted at each each postal address and only one Sky account

The Sky product for multiple television sets in use simultaneously (subject to bandwidth availability) is Sky Stream.
