Check whether your Sky package can add Broadband Boost

Sign in to your Sky account or contact Sky and check whether Broadband Boost is available for your subscription and address. Sky’s help page provides the current eligibility route; package terms can change.

Ask Sky about the booster supplied with the service

Confirm whether a booster is included, loaned or available under your specific offer. Sky’s help information says a Broadband Booster is loaned and must be returned if you cancel the Broadband Boost subscription.

Wait for the device and follow its setup guide

Use the instructions supplied with your booster because Sky equipment generations differ. The Sky Q Booster guide describes pairing with the router and checking the WPS indicator.

Place the booster where it can relay the signal

Choose a position between the router and the area with poor reception, with enough signal reaching the booster. Avoid hiding it behind furniture or inside a cabinet.

If you cannot obtain a Sky booster

Ask Sky support whether your account is eligible and what alternatives are supported. A third-party extender may work with many routers, but it will not necessarily provide Sky-managed features.
