No tv guide or live tv

Got up this morning to put BBC Breakfast on as I do every morning and there is no tv guide or live tv at all. I have rebooted the tv and broadband about 3 times and still nothing. Tried voicing various channels and nothing.

Hi @Natalie109 @Paul84-_ 

 

Thank you for highlighting the problem that you've been having with your TV/puck.

 

1. Switch the TV/puck to standby and unplug from the wall socket.
2. Plug it back in and make sure you leave it for at least 15 minutes in use, or on standby.
3. Put the TV/puck back on to standby, and then switch off at the plug. There's no need to unplug from the wall this time.
4. Switch on and check to see if the issue is resolved.
 
Can you let me know how you get on afterwards please? @Natalie109 @Paul84-_ 
 
Thanks

When you say rebooted TV, have you tried the restart in your Sky Glass TV settings.

 

Go to Settings>Systems Management>Resets & Updates
Select Restart device
Your Sky Glass will perform a reboot. It will take a few minutes to complete

@LMcN2 

 

Can you remove the power or switch off at the switch your Sky Glass TV.

Reboot your router.

 

Once your router is back and working, wait about ten minutes, power on your Sky Glass TV, let it rest  on the home menu for a few minutes, no longer.

Once again do a restart from settings on your Sky Gkass TV, not a power reboot.

Wait a few minutes, no longer and try the tv guide and live channels again.

@LMcN2 

 

I've escalated this to Sky and they should be in touch with you soon about it.
Look out for a message from Sky on your email and Sky Community private messages.
Look out for the blue chat bubble within your Sky community.
More about an escalation here;

This morning, the Cityfibre network is having issues which will affected any Sky Glass connection, if you are on that network.

 

Who is your broadband with?

@Paul84-_ I suspect there's a service issue because a few people have raised it.
