WiFi and Mini box connection keeps dropping out

[AThurgood]

I'm so frustrated with the poor quality hardware and total lack of support with Sky!

I'm constantly having to reboot everything on the network every other day  for the Mini boxes to connect and when they do, they are so slow and unresponsive. The support from Sky in non existent. My contract expires in February and I'm tempted to back the whole system.

And wait until it times out at 9pm again?

I have been with Sky since day 1 and unless this is sorted out this week with replacement hardware which works, I'll be cancelling when the contract is due for renewal in February

@AThurgood who is your broad band provider if Sky what colour of router do you have black or white ? if its not Sky how areyou connecting your main Q box to your router and how are you connecting any mini boxes ?

[AThurgood · Accepted solution]

We have the original black router which connects to the main Q box using WiFi. The main Q box is then hard wired to a Mini box in the furthest bedrokm to improve connectivity in the master bedroom.. Even the hard wired box keeps disconnecting and needs to be re-booted constantly

@AThurgood so when you say the original black router is that the ER110/ER115 from 2016 or the newer black router SR 203 from 2019
