THERE’S nothing worse than disruption to your favourite TV shows.

Sky Glass relies entirely on your broadband instead of satellite.

As we all know, internet issues can strike at any time, which will not only affect your usual TV channels but also streamed services like Netflix and Disney+.

So what are you to watch if the worst hits?

Well, many Sky Glass owners may not realise that their TV set has a port for an aerial.

This means you can watch Freeview channels while your internet sorts itself out.

You’ll need to set it up before you can start watching, but it’s easy to do.

And if you still have your old aerial cable, it’ll cost you nothing more.

How to set up a TV aerial on Sky Glass

Start by plugging in your aerial cable to the back of your Sky Glass TV.

Press the Home button on your remote control.

Go down to the TV input tile.

When you see “Let’s get your digital TV channels set up” hit Next.

Choose United Kingdom from the options.

Then select Terrestrial, followed by Search.

It will then start to search for available TV and radio channels.

Once it’s finished, you can enjoy Freeview channels from your Sky Glass TV.
