SKY Mini Box - Multiscreen

[Audi-1966]

Hi all,

I've just signed up to a multiscreen offer for 18 months for my SKY Q package. However, I'm just curious if anyone has had issues setting theirs up and if I need to buy any cables to connect the mini box to my HD TV.

Is it pretty straightforward with easy to understand instructions etc.

Also, I want to secure it on the back panel of the  TV because it's wall mounted - is there a decent bracket available for the mini box and, if so, where from and approximate cost - thank you.

Kind Regards 👍

Hi @Audi-1966   The HDMI cable is included in the box. As far as the wall bracket is concerned, search Amazon for "sky q mini box wall mount". Just make sure there is plenty of ventilation.

Edit: Make sure that you ordered a Mini box with your Multiscreen subscription. You don't get one by default, as people take out a Multiscreen subscription to watch on tablets, phones etc.

Many thanks for the reply and the link is really helpful.

I'll look on Amazon later to see whats available and take the ventilation tip onboard 👍

Just an update!

The package arrived yesterday and is basically Plug n Play, apart from pressing and holding a button on my router during set up!

Very straightforward install, and the box sits neatly on top of my TV so I'm not bothering with a mounting bracket!

Thanks for the help/advice @MultiQuinn

@arsenal54 you do not need your mini box/second TV connected to a phone line

No @arsenal54 .. just the Mini Box gets wirelessly connected to your SKY Router/SKY Q Box.

My TV isn't a smart tv and the Mini Box is very easy to set-up via wireless - plug and play as I call it!

Hi 

my sky mini box has stopped working and I can't get a number anywhere to call !!!

I've tried it in another tv and nothing , it does say on the tv where the main sky box is connected the it's "connected" . When the plug is switched on the red light comes on then immediately goes off . Any ideas ? Thank you

Could this be a faulty box?!

contact SKY and I'm sure they'll talk you through the steps needed or, send you out a new mini box!

Thank you @Audi-1966 

i'll give them a call , I didn't have much luck last time

Could anyone advise setting up my sky multi room and it's not connecting to broadband router or internet?? Do I switch the internet off altogether and see that way?
