After reading a number of post I am a little confused about Sky q Ethernet and wonder if someone can assist me.

My Sky Q is being installed in about 10 days time and I would like to use Ethernet to connect the Main and Mini box rather than Wifi, I have the standard Virgin router

So to the questions

Is the Ethernet connection just a single ethernet cable between the main Sky Q box and the Mini Box?

Or

Does the Ethernet connection for both boxes need to come back to the router

Or

Is the Ethernet connection just a single ethernet cable from the Router to the main Sky Q box and the Mini box dasy chained to the Main box (the mini box having no diect connection to the router)

I have an unmanged switch and enough cable for all options but would like to get it installed for the SKY Q installation day
