@Luce111 While the Sky Max hub will connect to a main Sky Q box it wont connect directly to any Q Minis these havecto be connected to the main Q box. Check the  main Q boxhas connected properly by going through the network set up as explained here see https://www.sky.com/help/articles/setting-up-sky-q-do-you-have-a-sky-hub

so ive connected the main sky Q box to the router. Everything works for approx 2 mins then it says that connection was lost.

 

i connect the mini box upstairs whilst i have connection to the main and again that works for 2 mins then i get the 'lost network connection' page on the 2nd TV

Thank you @Chrisee 

i called Sky and they talked me through installing the software update on the box. Unfortunately this didn't work so I'm waiting for a call from an engineer ☹️

 

so our new Sky Max Hub works and provides broadband for everything apart from the Sky boxes!!
