Contecting to Sky mini box
Hi,
I have built an office in the back garden, the signal for the Sky digi box, NOT the main one in the house is very poor, I have added the RE700x and signal is better for my laptop and other appliances but the sky box doesn't seem to be benefiting. Am i right in thinking that because my other appliances can be added to the EXT of the WiFi this is better?
How can i attach the Sky Mini box?

Hello @Bosch1875 ,
Welcome to our community.
Have you connected the Sky Mini box to the extender via cable? Is it the same cable?
If you're currently connected to a router via cable, connecting it to the RE700X likely won't improve performance. This is because the RE700X primarily extends the range of your wireless network.
If your Sky Mini box is connected to a router via wireless, you'll need to switch to the RE700X.

@Joseph-TP Hi, i have a lead running directly from the router to the RE700x, I have also changed the Operation Mode on the App to Access Point Mode. This has made no difference.

Hi@Bosch1875 ,
Thank you for getting back.
Is it a CAT5E or CAT6 cable? The RE700X has 1 Gigabit Ethernet Port, a cable that meets speed standards can achieve better transmission speed.
Please confirm the RE700X to Access Point mode successfully. For the Sky Mini box, I think you can reset it and connect it to the RE700X via WiFi again.
