Will my digital voice BT HDVoice phones connect to the Sky Max Hub when I switch this month? And is there a WPS button, can't see one on the back or base.
Hi there Richard 👋 I would love to help. Does your digital voice phone currently plug into your master telephone socket? There is a WPS button on the Sky WiFi max hub and can be found at the side of the hub.
When I changed to router it would not connect with several equipment when it worked with my old sky Q . I had to get some engineers to sort others .I still can’t get Alexa dot or my more expensive canon printer . I talked to sky help as the signal was worse than before and eventually gave me a sky pod . It works but still not as good as sky Q . Wish we had never had it
Hi there Hedley 👋 I'm really sorry to read this. Have you tried logging into your online Sky account here: www.sky.com/pages/sky-com/test-your-broadband for more help in getting your devices connected to your new broadband hub?
We are completely bemused by the instructions we are getting and cannot set up our Sky Max Hub. Is there a telephone number we can call for help or can an engineer come out and sort it for us?
I've got sky max WiFi hub thing, but the ps4 keeps saying it's not connected and keeps losing signal, tv in sitting room works great, but sky said the router should connect anything in the property, I live in a bungalow

Why in the hell os it impossible to do basic things like split the SSID bands (I like to split off 2.4 for IoT devices that won't connect if the 2.4 and 5ghz bands have the same SSID. And even worse you can't turn off the built DHCP server, if Id plugged that into my network it would have crashed more times than a ZX81. You either have to buy an expensive managed switch to block the DHCP port or do what I did....I ended up giving the DHCP only 2 addresses it could lease outside of the main DHCP range I use and set the lease time to forever, connected 2 vm's that got the leases and now I can connect whatever I want to the network, it looks at the sky router...fails...looks for another DHCP server and works. This is an insane way around the issues and isn't without problems but sky's dumbed down max (should be called min because it allows less config than ever, it truely is tje dumbest router Ive ever used) has forced this on me. Please AVOID this horrid device if you can. Oh and if you phine up asking for help with these issues the bloke will just slam the phone down on you after going around in circles for half an hour.
Hi there 👋 existing Sky boosters are not compatible with Sky WiFi Max hubs meaning you wouldn't be able to connect a booster to the hub. If the WiFi coverage needs to be extended to areas your Sky Max Hub signal can't reach, we would test your broadband and WiFi for any issues. If you're not meeting your Enhanced Wall to Wall WiFi Guarantee, we would issue you a Sky Max Pod.
Hi there 👋 Sorry to see that you've not received your activation date for your broadband services being activated. Have you tried logging into your online Sky account here: www.sky.com/ordertracking to see if a date is showing for your broadband services going active?
Sky needs to stop this nonsense. Why can’t I change my ssid from the router portal? Worse, I have to plug the damn thing for hours for me to be able to see it in MySky so I can change my ssid. During that time I cannot connect to the baby monitor that needs WiFi nor to the security system which also needs WiFi. Should I change all those to your new random name sky? Why change what was working.
Hi there Taf 👋 I'm really sorry to read this. I'm not quite following, are you unable to connect your devices to your current broadband hub using the hub name that you currently have?
@@skyhelp1 it is no longer possible to change the ssid via the router portal. You now have to use the mysky app. The my sky app does not show the router straight away on first connection. It takes hours. Over night for me. I needed to change the ssid and password to my old router’s ssid and password. This is to avoid having to reconfigure the WiFi for every device in the house. Now, since it takes hours for the router to popup in the mysky app, I had to sleep with all my devices, including my security system and baby monitor offline. I could not even use the old router as an access point and connect it to the new router neither. You are forcing people to reconfigure their devices to your defaults for the first few hours of connecting the router. This is horrible UX for zero benefit. Now if I do not have a phone or tablet I cannot configure my router. Why?
I'm really sorry to see that you're unable to update your router settings to get your baby monitor and security system connected to the Broadband. I recommend getting in touch with our Broadband experts as they will be able to offer you more help. You can find out how to get in touch with the team here: www.sky.com/help/articles/contacting-sky
@@skyhelp1 I do not need help anymore. I am complaining about the fact that I need to either wait hours to be able to configure the SSID and password or use the one you supply by default. You should be giving me a link to the user voice/suggestion/feature requests or something.

they should send you a switch that splits it for both
If I don’t have a phone dose it have to be connected to the phone terminal
