Sky q will not connect to broadband
I have tried numerous times to connect Sky Q to broadband but it has failed everytime. I have completed and followed all the on-line help but nothing. None of the mini boxes are connected either. Rebooted the router several times. One of the booster boxes is showing and not connected but I can't get it to connect. Spent several hours on this. Can't watch netflix. Pressed the WSP on the router several times but still nothing. Phoned SKY but just keeping getting a text message to go to the on-line help. Please help. Thank you

Re: Sky q will not connect to broadband
turn everything off
turn router on
leave it 10 minutes to stabilise
turn booster on (how far from the router is it by the way?)
Hold WPS on booster until it flashes
Hold WPS on router until it flashes
Give it a few minutes. do they connect?

Re: Sky q will not connect to broadband
Thank you Chodley.
Luckily I was able to speak to a person at Sky yesterday early evening. Dimitrios talked me through what I needed to do and it was exactly the same as what you kindly advised. Dimitrios was extremely helpful.
The booster is about 6 metres away from the router but there are a couple of walls inbetween. I did not realise all our sky equipment goes through the booster. I also picked up a couple of good tips re changing the standby mode to none (albeit it uses more power doing this).
Thank you so much for your help and quick response.
