Wireless TV?
Hello. I am remodelling my living room and the tv and sky box will be moved to a location which is virtually impossible to reach with the leads from my satellite. Is there a way I can connect wirelessly to the satellite with my existing box? Some kind of receiver?

Sorry @Will+Roberts SKY Q must be connected via cables.
You could consider switching to SKy Stream but it is quite different streaming everything, and no hard disk to record on etc

Not practically @Will+Roberts .
One option would be to use a Sky Q mini box at your living room TV.
You may need to occasionally connect a TV to your main Q box.
Bear in mind that the mini will not do UHD

@Will+Roberts afraid not the box does need to be connected to the leads from the dish

Re: Wireless TV?
You mean connect your Sky Q box wirelessly to the satellite dish? There's no way to do that, I'm afraid.
You could, I suppose, leave your Sky Q box where it is, and obtain a Mini box which connects wirelessly to your Sky Q box, though you'd lose UHD capability.
Or Sky Stream which doesn't require a dish connection might be an option.

@Will+RobertsYou will either have to pay to have your leads from the satellite moved or buy an satelite extension lead kit.
