hi, i have Sky Q with 2 Q mini boxes, just recently we have noticed the mini Q boxes will go offline but within a minute come back on. this is happening between 5 - 10 times a day. All boxes are wired and not on wifi. i have done the normal power off and powered everything off and then back on. this is becoming really annoying and i just cant seem to solve this. My house as a full fible connection and i dont have any other issues.
anyone have any ideas.
thank you
lee

Re: Sky Q mini boxes constantly losing connection to main Q box
are all your boxes connected by eternet? or wireless? if they are wired have you disabled the wifi on the boxes?

The main q box is wired by Ethernet and the q mini box is wired by Ethernet to a local wireless booster

Re: Sky Q mini boxes constantly losing connection to main Q box
You never said if wireless has been disabled? I've never used a booster so can't comment on them, I use network switches as my home is fully wired throughout. I did find though that once I went with a fully wired connection ~ main sky Q box and 2 mini boxes I had to disable wireless on all 3 boxes
