I have a Sky Q box and 2 mini boxes in the house. I have a third mini box in my summer house where the internet connection is poor and unreliable, therefore often unable to connect to my WIFI affecting viewing. I have a WIFI extender also in the house but the mini box only links to the main house router via the other Sky Q/mini boxes. I just don't know how I can boost the WIFI from the main router to get a good signal in the summer house, as won't connect to the extender. I've read mini boxes can act as hotspots but when I look at advanced settings on my Sky TV it lists automatic or manual IP addresses. There is no option to turn them mini boxes on as hotspots as I've read.
If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, I would be extremely grateful.
Thanks
Steve
