Hi @Burnzybhoy12454 

You need to carry out a Network reset on your Q box (not just a reset)

Network Reset found in Q box Home - Settings - Setup - Network.
Highlight Status and then select Reset on the right hand side. Follow instructions to connect by WiFi to your router.
Sky broadband you will be asked to press the WPS button on the Sky router. (Not on the Q box as the Network reset will start the main Q box WPS automatically). Make sure you press the WPS button on the Sky router and not the reset button.

Yes OK @Burnzybhoy12454 

That is a similar option .

You need to choose connect to Sky Broadband WiFi

Follow instructions to connect by WiFi to your router.
You will be asked to press the WPS button on the Sky router. (Not on the Q box as the Network reset will start the main Q box WPS automatically). Make sure you press the WPS button on the Sky router and not the reset button.

Looks like it's a call to Sky @Burnzybhoy12454 

You may need a Q WiFi booster to position midway between the mainQ box and the router
