Well it's now day 2 of having SKY broadband and so far, it's not too bad.

When it was installed yesterday I had a 3mb connection. This has gone up to 4mb today.

What has really surprised me so far is the overall performance. I'm current downloading a movie to my SKY+ box via on demand. My wife is on her ipad and I'm currently posting this via my PC. Neither the wife or I are experiencing any kind of lag or buffering as we go from site to site. I'm not suggesting we had this problem with Virgin, I just didn't expect SKY broadband to perform so well.

The upload speeds at the moment however are woeful.
