It will give you a good idea how far you are from the exchange (try both number and post code). Sky Uses ADSL2+ plus and I have seen pretty good results in Guildford: 13Mbps (ok 115 meters from the exchange) (My neighbour)
The provider for Sky Broadband is Easynet (for my exchange)

My postcode is HA0. Yes I have called retentions, but currently I am still paying £33ish for 10mb[
UPTO] base pack, star plus & TU24. Now on sky I would have a much better digibox, ie one that changes channels when u want to, not when the digibox decides to let u! Plus that would be a FIXED price. My ntl retentions offer wont last forever, and i have to keep calling every other month as the bill is usually wrong! Also, ntl broadband isnt exactly gr8 at the moment!
btw, I am 950m from the exchange roughly!

I'd be very surprised if you got anywhere near 8mbit on ADSL unless you live right next door to the exchange. |
As I sed, I use to get 7.1mb from f2s LLU.
