Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out moreIt will be a unique issue with your set up. If you’re seeing a “no satellite signal” message check that the connections from the Sky dish going into the back of your Sky Q box are still finger tight. Otherwise it’s very likely a dish misalignment so check the troubleshooting on this link

It may then give you the opportunity to arrange an engineer to check the alignment of your dish. If it doesn’t you’ll need to contact Sky to book an engineer appointment.
If you are connected to a communal dish you need to liaise directly with your building management company / landlord who will have their approved engineers to contact.
It’s worth noting that:
1 - a misalignment is not necessarily something that will be visible to the naked eye and could only affect one or two channels
2 - a Sky Q box requires a periodic 'Keep alive' signal that is delivered via the satellite so if that isn’t received the box will close down until the satellite signal is restored.
3 - due to the recent storms there’s still likely to be a significant delay in getting an appointment. It may be quicker to contact a local satellite company but that would be at your own expense.
