Sky Shield
Hi all,
does anyone know if Sky Shield can still be disabled when using the New Sky Fibre Routers?
My sons have Firesticks as they do not currently have smart TVs and wanted to check if they will continue to work?

Re: Sky Shield
@Scott220784 the Broadband Shield operates at a server level and is not affected by the Sky hub in use. The control of the shield is down to the account holder see https://www.sky.com/help/articles/sky-broadband-shield-start
In practice there is no difference berween a Firestick and a smart TV.
