Watching Sky Q recordings with Sky Go

I read on a Sky website page that I can watch Sky Q recordings on Sky Go whilst on the same network as the Sky Q box. What if I'm away from home (though still in the UK)?   I can be on the Internet but not on my home network.

You do have to be in the same property and the same network that the Sky Q box is on for this to work as being somewhere else will not allow you access to the recordings.

The only product which ever offered such 'placeshifting' was the now defunct Slingbox.

Note that you can download most (but not all) Q recordings to a Go device while at home and then watch those elsewhere using the stored data if you have the Go Extra product.

Re: Watching Sky Q recordings with Sky Go

Wenn ich im selben Gebäude und im selben Netzwerk bin brauch ich auch kein sky go mehr um meine Aufnahmen zu sehen. Dann kann ich gleich über meinen sky q receiver schauen. Was für ein Nonsens.

Sky, redet bitte nicht mehr von innovativer und moderner Technik. Das hier ist Mittelalter.

Which roughly translated says: "If I'm in the same building and on the same network, I no longer need Sky Go to see my recordings. Then I can watch straight away via my sky q receiver. What nonsense.  Sky, please stop talking about innovative and modern technology. This is the Middle Ages."
