Mini box

‎06 May 2024 01:42 PM

I have just added another mini box to my system. I am using it outside in a garden room but it's finding it difficult to connect to the main box. Is there any way of connecting it to my router ? I get a strong wifi signal in there but it is virgin media as openreach have failed to upgrade my area with full fibre just yet. Thanks in advance

A Mini box won't use that WiFi: it wants its signal to come from another item of Sky hardware.  You could try a Q wireless booster, but Sky themselves will not supply one of those to get a signal to an external location.

Sky glass isn't really an option for me. Also the faster broadband speed BT can offer at my address is upto 40mb
