Re: On demand not working
@jrb63 try rturning off both your Sky box and your broadband router at the plug. Wait 30 seconds before restarting your router and another 4 minites before restarting your Sky box.

Re: On demand not working
Tried this sequence (and several other reboot sequences). Does not clear fault.
Network is fine on all other devices incl Apple TV.
Sky+ box says connected to Network but fail for On Demand connection
Sky App remedy is no different - reboot sequence then says refer the internet provider. Thats poor.
Nothing else has changed on my system - was all fine 3 weeks ago
Not impressed the only Sky technical help is to push users at the Community.

Re: On demand not working
How is your Sky box connecting to the router?
I find that a direct Ethernet connection causes the least issues

The youngest Sky+ HD box is now a decade old.
Does yours have built-in WiFi, or is it using an external Sky Mini connector?
