When the Sky Go app is connected to the Sky Q box and multiscreen is required for this, then it is possible to stream the channels from the Q box as per this:

You’ll need a Sky Q Multiscreen subscription to watch live TV when Sky Go is connected to your Sky Q box
@caesarome , and what happens if it's not connected to your Sky Q? You can still stream channels. I can still watch Sky channels and all the listed channels that are in the "Watch on phone" tab on the app.
@Aunti+pitti I think for Premier Sports, it seems like you need to be on the same WiFi network as your Sky Q box and have your Sky Box linked with the app. When on your home WiFi, I'm assuming it's just simulcasting from your Sky Q box to your device.
However, Premier Sports is not available in the UK on Sky Glass and Sky Stream, i.e. as a streaming only channel. So, for solely streaming on Sky Go, i.e. connected on mobile Internet or not a home WiFi network, watching Premier Sports, as a streaming only channel, isn't allowed in the UK, but is allowed in Ireland with the Sports Extra pack. Hence, as I'm in Ireland, I can watch Premier Sports anywhere in Ireland on my Sky Go app.
It doesn't seem to be well documented or Premier Sports customers are not well informed.
I may have a legacy TV pack, I'm on Sky Signature, but I can send recording to my Sky Q box without Sky Multiroom, either on mobile Internet or WiFi.
