Hi @MR111 

 

Not sure what your query is exactly. You mentioned a smart TV but have posted in the Sky Stream board.

 

If you have a pick you can connect this to your TV and attempt to run it of a 4G hotspot, but your likely to have a poor experience. You can however watch on Sky Go on your mobile device untill your broadband is activated and you connect your puck.

 

If your query is about something else please clarify so the community can assist.

You don't need a smart TV. You plug your sky stream puck in via HDMI as per the instructions. See: https://www.sky.com/help/articles/setting-up-sky-stream

 

You can then connect this to your hotspot on your phone. And when your broadband is set up then connect it to your WiFi.

 

Or you can use sky go on your phone: https://www.sky.com/help/articles/sky-go-what-do-you-need-help-with

You can set your phone as a WiFi hotspot and connect Stream to that hotspot to use your mobile data. Providing you have a stable speed that meets the Sky Stream required specs, it should work fine. It will eat through your data though...

@MR111  Your 4 other posts asking the same question have been removed, please don't create multiple threads/post for the same query as this is unhelpful and can be seen as spamming.

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.
