Mini box connection

Hi, I've just moved house and taken my sky q equipment with me. I have ordered fibre broadband in the new house but there is a long wait. The main box works fine but it appears that I can't connect the mini boxes without a broadband connection? I've tried using my iPhone as a hotspot but it fails to connect. Is there anything I can do to connect the mini boxes without broadband? Thanks

hi @Petethepaint 

 

you shouldn't need a broadband connection as such, but you do need to have a home network with a router (even if not connected to the internet) to provide ip addresses .
