SKY fibre is being rolled out where I live in about 14 weeks time. I'm only 650 metres away from the exchange. I'm hoping for some impressive speeds.
I'm on the basic fibre. Thought about upgrading to pro but found I don't actually need it. The stable connection is enough.



Expecting the speed to go up a bit but haven't looked any closer at the syncing stuff yet.

That ping test is always the same, no matter when I run it lol.

For fibre the distance to the exchange shouldn't matter I think. The actual cabinets do all the processing and the fibre starts there.

You should be laughing at that distance, ready for 120+ speeds to I would have thought.
