1. Check your box is connected to the internet
Check your internet connection by going to:
- Press the Home button on your remote
- Settings can be found via the cog at the top of the Menu.
- Select Network & Internet
2. Check your cables
Time to head round the back of your box. We’ll walk you through what to do.
First things first, we need to check how your box is connected to your router. Pick your connection:
Direct Ethernet cable
- Check the Ethernet cable is securely connected to the Ethernet port. To be safe, disconnect and reconnect it.
- Follow the cable from your box to the back of your router and make sure it's securely connected to one of your LAN ports.
3. Restart your router
The simple old trick of restarting your router can help resolve this issue. Switch it off at the plug for 30 seconds and turn it back on. Give it a minute or two to warm up then check if you’re reconnected.
Please don't leave this page while your router is restarting as you won't have any internet access.
4. Restart your device
The old “switch it on and off” routine. Overused but it can often help resolve the issue. Press and hold the button on your box for 8 seconds, then let go. You’ll be greeted with a friendly ‘Hello’ telling you that your box has restarted.
