What beats me about Sky Broadband is the way it fluctuates,I know there is nothing wrong on my side,it's all been thoroughly tested,yet download speeds can change drastically every few weeks dropping then rising 2 or 3 MB/s and that's checking it on the Sky router status site.
Just before this happens I notice the router cutting out a lot,pretty sure Sky must be messing with something every few weeks for this to happen,it was a steady 5MB/s for 2 or 3 years with o2 before Sky took them over.

Yes vanthus. Well Sky still have me for tv, but they've lost my phone and internet. I love the way they let your speed go down and down and then "offer" you fibre (as I mentioned in an earlier post).
Oh well, let's see how BT treat me
as I'm just starting the 3 days of "settling in" period

18m contract
Up To 38Mbps "Totally Unlimited" (currently getting 30 and happy!)
3 months @ £16.00 then £23.00
+ line rental £15.99 (or £159.84 for 12m if paid up front (which I did).
£30.00 activation fee.
£125.00 Sainsbury's voucher (which I must claim online through MyBT)
I'm getting 30 wired and I can get about 18 wireless, but I'm VERY disappointed with the strength of the wireless signal. I can hardly get a connection one floor down and one room back. Considering how much they big up the BT Home Hub 5, it far from achieves in my opinion. I'm probably gonna have to fork out for wireless home plugs
homeplugs are much much better. I think it is just the location of my laptop that is the issue as the signal has to get through a wall.. if I go in the other room with a straight line to the hub it's around 50mb. Moot point now really as I just ran a cat 6 ethernet cable through.
