Has the viewing card and box been paired and activated?
To check:
- Press Home on your Sky Q remote, select Settings, then System Info.
- Select Viewing Card Number, then select Setup. The message "Pairing viewing card" will display, followed by "Viewing card paired".
Card activation usually takes a few minutes, but can take up to four hours. Make sure your Sky Q box remains switched on until your channels are active.
Once you can watch live TV on channel 106, your card has been activated.
