I have just witnessed a domestic Sky Q install. The installer refused to connect the Sky Q box via Ethernet to a powerline adaptor (Devolo, so quite reliable and very stable), because 'Sky Q boxes are not authorised to be connected via Powerline'.
It was suggested that it could be connected via the wifi network generated by the adaptor. Again, it was refused for the same reason, rudely. 'I have to connect it the way I am told.' He insisted on connecting it to the BT router more than 15 metres away with a very weak signal.
Is there something about Sky Q boxes which is a problem with power Line? Or is it just an installer who knows only how to do exactly what he is told in the training sessions?
