Sky tv keeps going off
Hello,
My Sky TV has been going off for days now.
I would get only about one hour of tv before it goes off and starts saying - "there is a problem with your satellite".
I am also unable to record any tv as well, its a nightmare.

Check your signal strengths: Services > Settings > Signal
The white part of all four bars should be at least half way across.

Sky don't offer support for Sky+ any more as the system is now obsolete. You could enquire about an upgrade to Sky Q, whereupon an engineer would visit you and install a new LNB on your satellite dish and check all cabling. This would require a new contract to be agreed upon.
If you'd rather stick with Sky+ then you'll need to contact an independent local satellite installer to come and check your dish & cabling.

Re: Sky tv keeps going off
Sorry, my box is Sky Q not Sky +.
Does that make a difference?
