Is the Sky Q box near the router ? Is it possible to connect it using an Ethernet cable ? If not, have you tried a network reset via the SkyQ menu

No they are opposite side of the room. I don't think I have one of them or if I do I know where where it is.

Yes reset in the setting, I've used the router button and the password 5 times + each in last couple of hrs.

The latter problem can be solved for about £7 for 10m from amazon.

The former is often a bit tricky though unless you can hide it under a skirting board or want to do some serious DIY.

Ohh gosh.. it's hard to get him to do anything around the house. We done the living room in last 5 years. So I most prob will have to wait 20+ years to get him to redo it. lol

I will have to phone them Monday and see if someone can come out or something.
I find it odd that everything else is working but the connect to both sky devises.
thank you

😀 Unfortunate timing!

Sky Q can often get its wifi confused. A full power down and back on of both devices and then doing a full network reset on the Q should work. It has to be the WPS button approach on the black Sky routers and make sure it's the WPS button and not another on the router - others have hit the wrong button before as they aren't very clearly labelled.

I just reset the router (press the reset button) even tho I did switch off and take both cables out. This has worked. I have connection. I hope this might help someone. Thank you everyone that comment and help. Thank you.
