Both sky mini boxes freeze especially on the hd channel , tried  turning  on and off, tried turning man box on and off but still have the issue of freezing .

I've had a similar issue over the last couple of days. But strangely only with BBC.

It was really bad last night on BBC 1, if I left it on bbc1 it would keep locking up and at the same time if I was on the x box I was getting a ping of 500ms when I usually get 10. 

I had to actually pull the network cable out of the box and that sorted the ping. 

I tried resetting the network network settings. I went in and manually set the IP address to something I knew wasn't taken on the network. Still the issue persisted. 

The main Q box is fine though.

I was having the same problem all day today. Did a full system reboot of network and sky boxes which didn't fix the problem.

Sky Q main box had the same IP address as one the home PC's. Rebooted the PC and fixed the problem.

Might have been the same issue then. In the end I'd had enough. Restarted the router, and restarted the other parts of the network. As so as I did that everything sorted itself. No lockups, ping was back to 8ms and Netflix's started movies instantly.
