Using Sky Q with pod
My main Hub and the Sky Q box are in different rooms and as such, the wifi speeds arent great (I have Sky Max 900mb and getting around 30mb via the Netflix speed test)
I then thought it might help to plug the box directly into a Sky Pod but for some reason I cannot create a wired connection through the box. Is it possible to connect the Sky Q via this route? Via the wired pod, I suspect I'll be getting around 600mb which needlessly to say is much better!
Thanks

Nothing a Q box can do uses more than 30Mbs.
A cabled connection to a wireless node should work.
BT Halo 3+ Ultrafast FTTP (500Mbs), BT Smart Hub 2

Re: Using Sky Q with pod
Assume you've done a full network reset and told it to use ethernet instead of wifi?
You'll be lucky to get 600Mb (and don't need it) and not all the Q variants have 1Gb ports.
