Q mini box ... stream or dish

Just curious about the signal for a mini box .....

Is the signal (live tv) streamed from the main box's dish signal or are the channels streamed over the Internet ? 

During heavy rain you lose the dish signal to the main box so I guess the mini box's signal will also drop out or is the mini boxed streamed over the Internet

Hi @brid+dave 

Q minis get all content streamed from main Q box.

So if main box loses signal so does the mini

hi @brid+dave 

 

The Live TV channels are via the Satellite into the main box which then acts as Media server to the mini
