Re: wi fi
There's no Sky app you can use on your TV, I'm afraid.
In relation to your Sky box, does it have a WPS button on the front panel, to the right of the blue/green rings of LEDs?

Re: wi fi
@sweetheart4321 There are no Sky Apps on smart TV to watch Cathup services as these are delivered through the necessary hardware like Sky Q and Sky Stream/Glass.
The only app Sky have for TV's is the Now TV app which is a different product entirely.
43" Glass TV & Puck Whole Home

Not sure what you mean by a PIN number. If your box has one, the WPS button is on the front panel as shown here:

If your computer has an HDMI-out port, that can be used as a television input.

@sweetheart4321 not all Sky+HD boxes have WiFi capability. I asked whether or not it has a WPS button, because if it does, it has WiFi and you can connect it to your broadband service for On Demand. If it has a WPS button, it's in the front panel.
