Tricky to give an precise answer since it was only launched about a week ago, but I would have thought that as it uses the internet for ALL its content, then I would assume that you need to run a VPN (probably at router level) for it even start to think to work.

Good question, as Sky Glass uses the internet only then in Spain a VPN is no good you need to subscribe to a PROKY Server usually about 70 Euro per year, then you need to add that proxy detail to your router. A proxy is good for purchasing things like Lottery Tickets and Betting apps where a VPN although keeps you secure does not always work to hide your location, where a proxy bypasses that. Hope this helps.

If by "PROKY Server" you mean a Smart DNS service, then if SkyQ and Sky Glass are like Sky+HD boxes, you can simply input the new DNS into them directly, and not need a router

Regarding my Sky box getting no signal.. After a few tweets I got it working.. I think the main problem was sky box not connected to Internet.. Anyway the important information for anyone who may be asking the same question as I was is, the Sky Q Card does pair to a Sky+HD box.. Thank you all for your help..
