The Sky Wireless Connector is a device that allows you to connect your Sky box to your home Wi-Fi network, enabling you to access a range of online features and services. It essentially converts the wired ethernet connection of your Sky box into a wireless connection, eliminating the need for ethernet cables or a direct connection to your broadband router. It’s a little harder to tell if your Sky Q Mini box is connected to the mesh network, as viewing the network settings will just show you that it’s connected to your home’s 2.4GHz network. So, the easiest option is to go to Settings, Network, Setup and select the Reset option and then select Confirm. As it stands, the only way to use wireless is to use the Sky Q wireless mesh as set up during installation. This has both a 2.4GHz and a 5GHz network. In most cases, the 2.4GHz network is used to provide a wireless hotspot if you have Sky broadband, but it can also be used for TV data sent to the Mini boxes. Actual streaming takes place over the 5GHz network, as this has the required bandwidth.

Enhanced Flexibility: By using a Sky Wireless Connector, you gain the flexibility to place your Sky box anywhere in your home, as long as it’s within the range of your Wi-Fi network. This allows you to position your TV and Sky box in the most convenient and aesthetically pleasing location, without being limited by the location of your router.
