@Badgernow Are you saying that you had a good working system and you have not changed the sky hub, BUT it has moved to the new position to suit where the Fibre was and now is installed?

The Hub was also changed at the point of the fibre being installed, I believe we have skymax, with every option to aid speead and signal, we have 1 repeater box and 3 mini boxes that act as repeaters in a standard build cavity wall house

Re: Fibre with a speed of 950 keeps dropping WiFi, disconnecting feom the sky boxes and hub
@Badgernow Pretty sure i have read sky max and it's One sky Q main box and One sky mini box. nothing else, but one off the superuser's can confirm that, so you have sky Max, the worst possible combonation off hub and Q mesh.
This may be a nightmare to sort out and you may not like what has to be done. So be prepared as they say...
Think it may have to all go Ethernet for Q and Mini's and HOT spot is all going to die, so no wi-fi about the place....
Please can you check if you have the Sky Q extender or the Sky Broadband Extemder. See the link to go look did both hub and boosters.!

@Badgernow Do you feel it would be an imposition to try turning something off, number one would be the Sky Max Podcast as you have said you have, The sky Broadband booster happy with and hope that it has all 3 lights on it, you said 3 mini's but i only see two on your list.
Hope that the position off the Sky Max hub is good enough and that the booster stay's connected, three green good, an amber middle not so good.
Trying to see if the pod is clashing with the Broadband booster.

Re: Fibre with a speed of 950 keeps dropping WiFi, disconnecting feom the sky boxes and hub
@Badgernow Can you please have a read on this linked post of the Q Forum when you get a minute. I ditched all my Q years ago in favour of my own sat box and networking. But having to go sort FF BB and Q next week for neighbour and hopefuly its a Qhub out for the SR203, but all changing from Back to the Front off property because of the stupid OR Fibre position but after 9 months of waiting the owner wants to just get the fibre in and deal with all the other poo poo later.
