I have just moved house and can't get my sky Q box to turn on, I'm not sure things are plugged into the correct place or if I'm missing a lead.

You've posted on the Sky Stream forum. Do you have Sky Stream or Sky Q?

I'm not actually sure, it's a small box 🫣

Is this the box you have?

Have a look at your Sky account... it will tell you😉

Yes that's the box I have 😎

I have two cables coming out of the back. One into the tv and one into the broadband box, am I missing a power cable?

The smaller of the two circular connectors (right hand side in the image below) is for the power supply: this looks similar to a mobile phone charger but with a cable end to match that socket.

Brilliant thank you, I have the two leads in the middle so it's apparent I'm missing the power cable that goes into the round hole!
thank you for your help! Have
