Sky Q boxes
Sky Q boxes
by StephenG » Wed Feb 01, 2023 10:08 pm
Hello All,
Will a Sky Q box work in Spain and another England both using the same Sky card which will travel with me? Do they work via a satellite connection or via fibre? I have at the moment a Sky+ HD box.
Any information will be gratefully received.

Don't think SKY Q uses a card, I never had one but believe it’s totally digital.

Can be done but very complex to do. You need to have the main box (with satellite dish and card) and a mini q box set up on the same local network. To have the mini q box running in Spain you need to have a vpn set up to your home network and the main box needs to be functioning in the UK at the same time . .

I believe Sky Q requires a new type of LNB for your dish.
And as mentioned, a VPN connection - all told, probably not viable.
Old Sky boxes are OK to receive the equivalent of Freeview channels, but a better choice might be a modern Humax, or similar.

Sky Q boxes will work with your British viewing card, you just have to pair it with your box in Spain, as long as you have a British account of course. You will have to check with a satellite guy to see if your LNB is compatible.
