Does the remote need line of sight with the puck to work; the reason I ask is I'm thinking of subscribing sky stream (cancelled Sky Q 2 years ago) but have a wall mounted tv and I want to hide the puck behind the tv. Also, can I watch sky stream on iPads elswhere in the house (is there a separate app) and will it have the same functionality as watching on the tv. Many thanks.

Hi @mikealanr , Thank you once again, just one more question, as you are the oracle,, does the puck have an Ethernet connection, I have full fibre into the house and prefer solid connection for stability.
Thanks Dougie+Divot
@Dougie+Divot Yes it does, it's how I have mine connected. It supports WiFi 6 too so you'll likely get faster speeds (your broadband package dependant) via WiFi. I use a wired connection as it's plenty fast enough for my viewing needs (including UHD/HDR)

No the remote connects via Bluetooth as well as IR functions.

Yes but note that the channel line up on stream (and Go) is different than Q.
See: https://www.sky.com/help/articles/tv-channel-list-sky-glass
Also the number of devices you can uSe is different depending on your package: https://www.sky.com/help/articles/managing-devices-and-streaming-sky-go#:~:text=You%20can%20register....
