When are you going to fix the sky outage in my area? I’m not surprised it’s happened because the signal had been playing up for days. Let’s hope you do the right thing and Sky compensated customers. I’m not impressed

A problem with your Sky+ set up (where you've posted) will not be a large outage otherwise the forum would be awash with reports. It's likely to be your own set up. What is the issue with your signal as it could be a dish misalignment. Sky themselves no longer support Sky+ and Sky+HD, if you have Sky Protect through Domestic and General Insurance you can call them otherwise you'll need to employ a local satellite engineer at your own expense to check it (or upgrade to Sky Q or change to Glass / Stream).

And I'd wager we wouldn't be able to post in this community as it would be in meltdown.

There's no such thing as a satellite signal outage in a particular area. Loss of satellite signal is down to your dish setup.

Those are the exact words used when checking my broadband and wifi connections via MySky account! So can you Mark explain why MySky used those exact words and tell me why there is no signal at all - clearly an expert in this field!

Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out more@Jenny33 if you're talking your broadband service, that has nothing to do with Sky+, where you've posted. Sky+ is a satellite based TV service, not a broadband service.

Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out more"No Signal" is an error generated by your TV indicating that it cannot find a device on the current input, check the correct input for your Sky box is selected
"No Satellite Signal" is an error generated by your Sky box, it has nothing to do with broadband (Internet connectivity) and usually indicates an issue with one or more of the following:
You may have to call out a local satellite installer, unless you already have Sky Protect insurance, to check/fix your system, another option is to move to Sky Q, as during the move all issues will be resolved as part of the install, there is also the option of Sky Glass or Sky Stream, if you want to move away from satellite TV and use the Internet

So this is an issue with your Broadband and not your Sky+ box?
