This means that all boxes need to be within the range of the main box or another Sky Q product. As with all wireless systems, you can run into trouble when you are beyond the range of the wireless signal which may cause the signal to drop out or not connect at all. Most WIFI systems use 2.4Ghz, but 5Ghz is also used for some of the later WIFI standards and faster connection/ internet speeds. The problem with using the higher frequency band is that the range within buildings is not as far as the lower 2.4Ghz range, meaning the larger the house or the more walls the wireless connection needs to pass through the more likely you are to run into trouble.
