WiFi is showing but not working
I have the green LED on my box and the diagnostic scan says everything is ok. But I have no WiFi that I can use, on my tv, phone or laptop.

Re: WiFi is showing but not working
@EmilyHP1 Can you please run the service checker, this can be done either via the Sky app on mobile data or use the link below.
https://www.sky.com/help/diagnostics/sky-broadband-diagnostic/sky-broadband-diagnostic
If it finds an external fault it should enable you to book an engineer.
After the service checker completes and if it comes back green all good can you click on broadband to run an updated test please. If you get amber or red please follow the on screen instructions.
If you have found this solution helpful please tick this as the answer.

Re: WiFi is showing but not working
Spoken to sky. Did lots of different resets but in the end the technical department did something behind the scenes, I then did a reset and all is working. Very helpful lady on the phone. Thank you all for your help!

Re: WiFi is showing but not working
Update: I've finally managed to get through the labyrinth telephone system and spoken to someone. Advised to press Reset (confirmed I've already done several times) advised to run diagnostics (confirmed I've already done several times). 'Technician' said he'd be sending an engineer and the first available slot is in SEVEN! days. Awesome....
