Anytime+ will function perfectly well even at your lowest speed , I receive 9mb through Sky Unlimited BB and Anytime+ HD content is generally available to play within 30-45 seconds.

What experiences you don't have any of Sky :confused:
He has to receive within that guideline or he can cancel , his line can obviously cope with the minimum 9mb , my estimate was 5-11mb I get 9mb.

My estimate was 1.5 to 2.5 ish Mbps and I get close to 6

Roll on the 28th when I hopefully get Sky fibre installed.

will do, quick question does the sky equipment get posted days before the visit or does the sky engineer bring the equipment?
reason i ask is that i haven't moved into the new house yet (between flit)

Re: re Sky tv
