My sky box slow after getting new one

It's getting very frustrating. I have a new box sent to me from sky a sky Q box because my old one was running slow if I do a speed test on my Internet it's normal.  And  works fine on my computer and phone. But my program is buffer on apps like Discovery plus and even Netflix struggles to even load  I have tried restarting and restarting my Internet but nothing improves it

there are others. I recommend passthrough ones like this as you don't lose the power socket then.

Re: My sky box slow after getting new one

I purchased an added these two boxes onto my router. And the other to the sky q box. But what happens is now if you turn the Sky Q box on and off the TV just says no signal.  if I take the plug and line back off  it connect to the TV fine again I don't get it. I think I just wasted £40
