Re: 2 LNB's on one dish
No physical way you can have two LNBs on a single dish. And Sky won't install 2 dishes at one property.
Also, is your caps lock key broken? 😉

Re: 2 LNB's on one dish
Ha ha just lazy changing upper/lower case keys . Have had previous issue with using Q-box and multi-room boxes
as old house and thick walls . Even with signal booster the multiroom box would drop out continuosly .
Hence why i wanted 2 main boxes . Not sure way forward as tried using BT box and not happy with it . Still have Sky Q box
in use in other part of house .
Thanks

Re: 2 LNB's on one dish
Powerline adapters often the best bet, since running ethernet through those kinds of walls is no fun.

hi @GARYT62
If you are unable to use ethernet between the main box & mini box, you could consider using Powerline adapters to provide network connectivity between them & not rely on wifi
Edit : I see @Chodley also suggested these whilst I was typing

Q is now a decade old and approaching end of life: Stream is the current product for subscription television in multiple rooms (but relies on both sufficient broadband and either adequate WiFi or cabled connectivity)
BT Halo 3+ Ultrafast FTTP (500Mbs), BT Smart Hub 2
