Re: No satellite signal for last 3 days
Take a look at the troubleshooting on the appropriate section of this link.
https://www.sky.com/help/articles/sky-tv-no-satellite-signal
You may then need to contact Sky and arrange for an engineer to check the alignment of your dish. Be aware that if you’re on a communal dish system you’ll have to contact your landlord or building management company rather than Sky.

Re: No satellite signal for last 3 days
@Gavin5 Your internet connection is irrelevant if it's showing a no satellite signal.
If you work through these steps and if not resolved you can book an engineer https://www.sky.com/help/home/sky-tv/sky-tv-q/fixing-sky-q/fixing-live-tv/no-satellite-signal/articl...

As per my earlier post… if you’re on a communal dish system you’ll have to contact your landlord or building management company rather than Sky.

Re: No satellite signal for last 3 days
@Gavin5 Is it a communal setup then? There must be a dish communal or otherwise that feeds into the fibre setup, this being the case you'll need to contact the people who maintain the communal system, which isn't sky.

Re: No satellite signal for last 3 days
If the error is No Satellite Signal than you definitely have a dish.

Yes, but to feed a Sky Q box which needs a satellite signal then there must be a communal dish somewhere?
However the point still stands, it's not a Sky issue but needs to be fixed by whoever provides the fibre feed to the property. @Godfrey can you advise on this?

Re: No satellite signal for last 3 days
hi @Gavin5
Did you follow the lin that @GD1 posted above (#3) and followed the 'Communal System' path - especialy the final bit about checking the LNB mode is set to SCR
Unfortunately as the others have mentioned, if you can't get it sorted, as you have a communal feed you will need to contact your Housing management people responsible for the communal feed

100% there is not a dish. If you need schooling about how a fibre cable then you're in the wrong job

In case you’re not aware this is a forum where Sky customers try to help other customers. You aren’t talking to Sky Customer Services.

Technically, there will be a dish that feeds the main distribution system as that is how the channels are broadcast even for such systems but it may not be anywhere near your premises

Sky Q needs a satellite dish to operate. It does not work over fibre/broadband etc. If you think it does then perhaps you need "schooling".
Are you sure you have Sky Q and not Sky Stream?
