Bluetooth remote

My sky boxes are in another room from the TV, the remotes only work if I stand next to the wall where the boxes are. Do Sky offer a booster or repeater?

No, not for Bluetooth.

Re: Bluetooth remote

Is there any other company who can supply a booster.? There are lots on Amazon but not sure if they would work.

I don't recall any post in this forum confirming success with any particular hardware, but then only a tiny number of Q households are likely to be in need of such a thing.

hi @jssbfs

 

I am afraid I can't help re a booster but I have to admit I am surprised you feel you need one. 

 

Over time I have done a few tests with my remotes & I have controlled my main box which is situated in an alcove by my front window from my back garden outside - so through 2 walls and  2 rooms  as well as from upstairs. 

 

I am thus guessing there is something in your wall that is blocking bluetooth signals
