Sky HD with Sky Hub and Sky Booster Issues

I have just received a Sky booster as my wi-fi signal is poor. I do not have fibre but only copper cable to premises. As such I can't upgrade my Sky HD to any of the newer formats (Glass etc) as the Sky engineer could not establish a wi-fi grid in my home. The Sky booster works fine but if I go onto an app (testing with ITV X) then the connection is very slow to load and all the personalised elements ('continue watching' etc) are not available. I have re-entered passwords in ITV x and re-booted the Hub router and repositioned the router but the same issue keeps occuring. If I disconnect the booster, and reboot the hub all is fine. I enjoy the better wi-fi signal when the booster is connected but my wife can't watch ITV X. So the booster remains disconnected. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. Robert.

What are you watching ITVX on, as your Sky+HD box doesn't receive it?

Hi, I am watching ITV X on a 2023 smart LG TV via the ITV X app.

So what has this to do with Sky+? I might be missing something here 😞

Re: Sky HD with Sky Hub and Sky Booster Issues

My apologies, Sky+ should read Sky HD. The system worked until I plugged in my new Sky booster, so I presumed the issue may be related to the new Sky hardware added?

But this issue with ITVX is either an LG issue or a Broadband issue and neither will affect your Sky TV reception, thus I'm not sure if you have posted in the correct forum 😞

Re: Sky HD with Sky Hub and Sky Booster Issues

Our broadband is with Sky and understand that this won't affect reception but the Sky booster does seem to be effecting ITV X and BBC iPlayer etc. There are no issues with ITV X until the Sky booster is added.
