Hi all and thanks for all the warm welcomes  :eek4:

well its a sad sad day......... :bawl: :bawl:

It is my last day on SKY AKA the BORG I have been assimilated for some 12 months now and I am no longer able to determine what normal life is on broadband and I am scared but at the same time it can be no worse......

I take it you're on the awful Sky Connect?

Hi Sebby - yeh SKY connect I am on or was....My exchange is non LLU and looks like it will be that way till 2011 according to the exchange checker details. :bawl: :bawl:

Was with Eclipsce prior to them - I was ok then but they used to throttle me after 20GB and at the time their next package up was way to ££££ for what it was so moved my phone and broadband to SKY connect or as I call it SKY no CONNECT after 5  :eyebrow:

Sebby

Sky shouldn't offer non-LLU, imho. It gives them a really bad name, when their LLU offering is actually brilliant for the money.

Let us know asap how things are. We are all on tenderhooks waiting for your result :eek4: :fingers:

Absolutely right! Connect is dire after 5pm and should be banned :rant2:

The SKY BORG escape......

Returned from work yesterday expecting the household to be OFFLINE and the kids screaming we have no internet  :eek4:.........

But no.... they were all still connected, checked my mails and IDNET had said change over complete I just needed to change over my ID and password to theirs  ??? Last time I changed over I was offline for days... :dunno:

Anyway had to rip out SKY router as their flash version takes out ID and password so you can't change it, will get round to re-flashing it but already had another router, changed my ID and was on as quick as a flash :thumb:  :ok:

I could not get on to a speed test quick enough  :meldrew:

Well from the first test I was getting over 3.5 and this was at 18:00 so already the ALIENS had smashed the BORG's drip fed connection.  :solved: :bow:

I did a few tests and was getting different results but all above 3.0 so I guess it will take a bit of time for the line to sync to speed again - so hopefully will level out to 5.ish - will try a day time test later when I get back home.

Well what can I say......This was the most easiest change over I have ever done.

IDNET  :welldone: :hug: Thank you for saving me from the SKYBORG I have broadband after 5pm :cheers2: :happy:


Oh one more thing a message to SKYBORG  :bartmoon: :getout:


Cheers all

Jon

:thnks: :cheers:

Jon, I'm sure there is room for a few more smilies in that post  :legpull: Glad that you have got the result that you wanted.

Problem now is what am I going to get  :mad: and  :rant2: at now  :bawl:

Sebby

That throughput is not too bad. You'll have a profile of 5500k and your throughput is around 82% of the profile.
