Re: Changing Wifi Network - Mini Box not connecting
You can't call a specific team afaik, just have to get routed through the normal phone support system. Such is the way of modern big corp life.
I've re-escalated for the online chat team on here.

@GV37 If Sky was you old provider and you have moved to a different provider the mini box will not connect to the new provider by WIFI it will connect to the main Q box by way of a mesh created by the main Q box so this may well be what you are seeing
I may be a Sky Superuser but I am still just a Sky customer
Sky Q 2 TB (Silver)Box, 2 Mini boxes since June 2016, all connected by wifi
Sky Broadband Hub/SR203, Sky Ultrafast broadband
Ultimate on Demand, Q Experience/UHD, Sky Sports, Sky Cinema

Re: Changing Wifi Network - Mini Box not connecting
I have this issue too. I need to change my sky q main box and mini box to a new wifi system. When I do this it seems to work but when the mini connects it boots the main box off the network after a short period of time.

Re: Changing Wifi Network - Mini Box not connecting
I hope someone can help… I have a Sky Q Main box, a Sky Q Wireless Extender and a Sky Q Mini Box. I am trying to change the Wireless network it uses as I am moving away from Sky due to slow speeds and they don’t have fibre in my area.
I successfully did the Reset on the Main Q box and connected it to the new Wireless network1, so all good there. I did the WPS button on the Q Extender and on the Main Q box, as I think this is how you sync those up ? Then did it with the Mini Q upstairs – However, after restarting all 3 boxes, the Mini Q says it can’t find the Main Q box.
What am I doing wrong ? Does anyone know the correct process please ?
please help me!!
Thanks

Re: Changing Wifi Network - Mini Box not connecting
How did you do the mini to booster connection exactly? Is it a Q booster, not a sky broadband one? Is it hardwired to the new router?
