Since switching to sky broadband i noticed that my ethernet ports on the sky router werent running at gigabit speeds and after many hours trawling the internet i found the posts on here about the sky q mini boxes affecting the ports. I turned off all my sky q minis and sure enough my router ethernet ports where back up to gigabit speed and everything was working as it should. Once I turn them back on after a few seconds everything drops back down to 100Mbps speed. So clearly its the sky q mini boxes. (the router is still set to gigabit speed)
i tried connecting them all using a wired connection and turning off the wifi. I tried changing the 5ghz channel on the mini boxes from the engineer menu, even using different cables. Everything i can think of.
i had no problem when i was on BT fibre for three years. all the gigabit ethernet ports worked fine with the sky q minis.
has anyone found a solution? my main sky q box is an original 2tb. Is it worth trying to get the new sky q hdr box? or is a third party router my only option??
