Hi @Hargy224 

Try a Network Reset found in mini box Home - Settings - Setup - Network.
Highlight Status and then select Reset on the right hand side.   Do not carry out any WPS and wait to see if the mini will reconnect to the main Q box

Hi @oldfella 

 

 

 

I've tried this numerous times without using the wps button, and i get unsuccessful connection.

Do you have another nearby sky q product in ur home that you can try connect to?

Hi @Hargy224 

Looks like it could be an issue with the Ethernet cable.

No reason why it shouldn't connect by Ethernet if the cable is fully wired and not faulty
