I have a holiday home located 15 miles from my main dwelling. I currently have a Sky Q box at home and would like to have a Skystream box at my holiday home. How can I do this?

Is it not cheaper to install Sky Go onto a Firestick, or another streaming device, and use that? It may have to be a new account in a different name.

Never thought of that, so this will give full functionality?

Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out more@Aitch2 You would likely need to order it under a new Sky ID using a different email address to the one you use for Sky currently.
For occassional use Sky Go may be the better optiin as mentioned by @KPGills1

That's what I suspected, which I don't mind, just curious about setup, as it would have to be sent to my home address., then setup at the Holiday home,.

don't forget stream requires broadband so you will also internet connection

@Aitch2 That's not going to be possible sky will only deliver to the registered address which needs to be the second location

Yeah, I have 50mb Internet there, just wondering f I can choose my home residence for delivery and holiday home address for usage.

@Aitch2 No you can't see my reply in post 7 above

OK thanks, I will have to see if the Park Reception will accept delivery for me.

@Aitch2 If you just want access to Sky's subscription channels at the holiday home Sky's NOWTV subscription service would be a better solution .... you can then access other broadcaster's channels using their apps😉

Sky Go would be the better option instead of NOWTV an Apple TV device would work out cheaper than getting Sky Stream and a second Sky TV Subscription
Why suggest NowTv when Sky Go is available at no extra cost @Exiled-in-HH

Depends whether you want UHD HDR / ATMOS or not😉
