According to the openreach tech if i go for the pro he said i would get about 76mb down and 20mb up,

and he also said there's only 2 people on fibre on the whole estate!!!!

Youtube buffering days are offically over, pages load instantly,

I think you might be disappointed with the sr1010hub. :(

If you have a decent router put it in the sr101's DMZ until someone cracks extracting the sr101's username/password.

It's what I am doing and it works a treat.

There's a walkthrough on skyuser.

200mb homeplugs you should get the full 80mb

Someone has managed to sniff the username and password from the SR101 using wireshark, ill post the PDF here in a min ;)

What's "buffering"? Or "lag"? I am not familiar with these phenomena. :p:

Re: Just had sky fibre installed
 

got the pro this morning get 65mb down and 18mb up with homeplugs,
on my rig, cant tell on the other computer in the house cause its an old P4 and won't do much more than 42mb cabled!!!

Thx, I am aware and actually have this information, :)

Unfortunately the proposer of this does not have access to a SR-101 and so cannot test it. It would appear, to date, no one else has tested it and so it remains a theory.

Due to disability and the lay-out of my kit it would be quite a physical effort for me to test it.

As piggy-backing in the SR-101's DMZ is managing to do all I need I would prefer for someone else to test and if successful write a step by step guide.

In the thread I got that PDF from, there was one guy who tested it and confirmed it worked

Re: Just had sky fibre installed
 

I thought someone on this forum had already got it to work?

Re: Just had sky fibre installed
 

Nope

Re: Just had sky fibre installed
