ETHERNET

Would linking my sky q box and mini box via tp ethernet link rather than wireless make a different to broadband speeds?

First off all lets check the speed you are getting at the router. Can you post your router stats as shown below

@JAP666 using ethernet to your Q boxes is likely to improve the speed of devices using those boxes' wifi hot spots. Whether it makes much difference depends on the strength of the wifi signal they get from your Sky hub but in most homes it should help quite a bit.

It likely would only if the speeds you are seeing now are lower than what Sky claim you are getting
