Hi
we've had sky q since last September the main box downstairs and a mini box upstairs plus a booster downstairs. Everything has been okay until I had sky broadband installed and although I have no problem downstairs, the booster is no longer connected and I am unable to install anything on the mini box.
Can anyone help please?

On Sky Broadband you can use the WiFi booster to connect to your router or your main Q box. That's provided it is a Sky Q WiFi booster.
If you main Q box is successfully connected to your Sky router then you can use the Q booster located between your main Q box and the mini.
Assuming the main Q box is connected correctly you need to set up the Q booster as follows.
Position the booster approx midway between the main Q box and the mini.
Tip: Need to move your booster after you've connected, don't worry it will automatically reconnect when its moved as long as its within range of your main Q box.
Then carry out a Network Reset on the mini.
Network Reset found in mini Home - Settings - Setup - Network.
Highlight Status and then select Reset on the right hand side. Follow instructions to WPS with Q device,
You will be asked to press the WPS button on the Q booster box (not the mini as the Network reset will start the mini WPS automatically).

I've been trying to connect the mini box but it permanently shows a red light and the tv says no video signal!
Thank you for trying to help me, I'm just not very technically minded.

Have you tried pressing the Standby button (Amber led) on the front of the mini box.
If this turns the mini box on
With the Q box on with green led try completly resetting your mini Bluetooth remote.
Press and hold 7 & 9 together on the remote until it’s led flashes four times.
Then make sure that you are pointing your remote at the mini box and press 1 & 3 together until the led flashes and follow onscreen instructions to re- pair to TV.

Have you received a black or a white Hub from Sky?

Sorry for not thanking you for your help but my head is not in the right place at the moment, I am having a lot of family problems at the moment so haven't attempted to deal with my booster and mini box but thank you once again.
