Take a look at our Can't watch or access subscription TV channels help.
Can I use different cables to the ones I got with the box?
No. You'll need to connect your BT Hub to your 4K recordable TV box with the Ethernet cable we sent you - it's a higher quality cable.
You should also use the HDMI cable that came with box, because it specifically supports Ultra HD technology.
