What's it saying about the engineer? Where are you looking?

If you have existing WiFi then you can connect and setup the Stream puck using that. It is not limited to Sky broadband.

If you ordered Sky Broadband at the same time as Sky Stream, it's important to understand that the lead times are very different.  A Stream puck can be delivered next day from warehouse stock but broadband has a minimum two week wait for Openreach attention (and potentially much longer for FTTP provisioning)

Unfortunately Sky really doesn't make it clear enough that this is simply not possible: UK/RoI broadband infrastructure just doesn't work like that for either switching ISP or installing a new connection.  Delivery of a Sky Hub does not get the address on broadband from Sky.

But why isn't it letting me connect to my iPhone hot spot either?

@Daniel581 do you mean Broadband rather than Wifi?

What sort of Mobile Phone service do you have?

 

Did you get any error messages when trying to connect to the Mobile Phone hotspot?

What exactly did you order? Are you waiting for a Sky Hub WiFi router to be delivered? Or are you waiting for an Openreach engineer to connect a FTTP broadband service to your property?

So what i was expecting to order was the sky puck and broadband for £39 a month 

The puck was delivered yesterday but on my sky app details is said the engineer was cancelled 

And it's not saying if and when the broadband box will arrive or why the engineer was cancelled 


and trying to get help on the sky app is impossible

Just for clarification.... do you currently have a Broadband Service at your registered address?
