Hoping someone can help as I have no idea what else to try.
My Sky q has been working fine up until a couple of days ago when it stopped connecting to my internet. My tv itself is still connected but not Qbox. I've switched everything off, unplugged and started again but now it won't accept my password. I'm at a loss as to what to try next 🤷🏻♀️

Hi @CallieBee23
First reset your broadband router.
On 3rd party broadband and your router does not have a reset button, reboot it by disconnecting the power lead for 30 secs and then reconnecting.
Wait until the router is completely back and running and then try a Network Reset found in Q box Home - Settings - Setup - Network.
Highlight Status and then select Reset on the right hand side. Follow instructions to connect by WiFi to your router. Even if reset is not listed there is still an option to connect by WiFi to Sky or 3rd party router
On 3rd party (non Sky ) broadband then you need to enter the SSID and password for the router 2.4 Ghz WiFi band.

I have gone through all that again as you said but it won't accept the password for my router. Thank you for replying though!

Looks like you must be making a mistake with the password @CallieBee23

worth trying splitting the 2.4 and 5 GHz SSIDs on the BT router into 2 different names.
