Sky q

I'm decorating and need to move the main TV for about a week, can I still watch TV and use the wifi with the mini box without the hdmi plugged into the main TV?

@Perkininy  Without a active satellite signal the main Q box will stop working after a few days. The Q mini would also stop working for this reason.

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.

@Perkininy 

 

Providing the main box is still powered on and working you should still be able to use your mini box, I don't think having the HDMI in the main box would make difference.

 

Easiest way is to just try it now, take the HDMI out of your main box and see if your mini box still works?

 

Edit: Just seen @GD1 reply, If the main box isnt going to have its sat cables in then you're out of luck pretty much after a day or two.
