Sky Broadband

Hey all, was wondering if anyone could help me with a few questions regarding my Sky Broadband service.

I recently changed from AOL to Sky, with AOL i was getting a speed of around 3Mb, I was connected to Sky on the 2nd of September, and since then i have been getting speeds of about 0.10-0.20 for download and upload according to speedtest.net, but when i check my router settings im getting 7000+ download, and 500+ upload. Does this have anything to do with the Sky 10 Day stabilization period? (Is this really needed?) Or is it just to make people stay on past the 7 day cancellation period? I'm worried that if i wait the 10 days, i wont be able to cancel my contract and my speed will be terrible.

Hi there, I am getting a large number of students that can't access the internet. When they log on and open IE they don't get the default web page or a log in screen. It appears to be random, I have tried setting up new user accounts but this also appeasrs to be hit and miss on whether they get access.

Any ideas?

Cheers
Alan

Looking at your stats it looks like you are on the sky connect package, the 448 upload is a give away for this.

I take it that the slow speeds are in the evening after 4pm, most connect customers have the same issue, have a look here for more info
