Hi @Budgie1
First reset your broadband router.
If on Sky broadband hold the Reset on the back of the router until the power light flashes green (about 10 seconds). Don't unplug or switch off your router while it resets. The power light will go green when it's done.
If on 3rd party broadband and your router does not have a reset button, reboot it by disconnecting the power lead for 30 secs and then reconnecting.
Wait until the router is completely back and running and then try a 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. Even if reset is not listed there is still an option to connect by WiFi to Sky or 3rd party router
If you are on 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.
if you are on 3rd party (non Sky ) broadband then you need to enter the SSID and password for the router 2.4 Ghz WiFi band.

Re: Sky Q no internet
No, it's the Q having rubbish wifi. It's not telling you the internet connection itself has a problem, it's telling you that IT can't get to the internet.
Which router do you have?

Re: Sky Q no internet
Ok so it shouldn't be the Max one (which I believe is white) which has more compatibility issues with the Q.
Presumably it's been working fine before? What happens if you reset the network on the main Q box with any minis completely powered down?
