Sky don't do adsl2+ over BTs network.

Yes, that was my "Almost certainly" get-out in my reply, as I didn't think Sky did WBC.

As far as I an aware. I am sky 10meg service. I don't think it's LLU. I will check the sky bill later. I am on PPPOE. don't think that LLU or am I wrong?

wrong there.

I am fastpath and my pings are as low as 9 most of the time but arround 11-12 at worst.

Also Talktalk LLU does have its limits, just look at the TC sky llu is the only true unlimited package left.

You are on Sky LLU as you are getting over 8 meg/sec

There is one issue though you speed is looking about right for a 37dB attenuation, but your noise ratio is 3.6dB. Sky runs at a 7dB profile so I think you may have a small wiring problem somewhere as you should be seeing that speed with a 7dB noise margin.

Also if you go to Talk Talk you will need to take out their phone line as well, which your mum may not want to do.

They'd be more complaints if they did!

mummy knows best

Sky don't do a 10meg service, it's 20meg or 8meg. But you're on the 20meg LLU package. The type of of network doesn't matter as both PPPoA and PPPoE can be used for LLU, it's still DSL.

you wrong.

Sky dont do a 10mbit connection, they do the up to LLU product and connect which is based on bt equipment and cannot go about 8128kbps.

By you being above that speed you are on LLU, its impossible on skys connect system to get above this.

So yes, you are on LLU already and if your telly, talk and broadband are with sky, you will be hard pushed to find a better price and a better allowance, TT cannot compete if you have all 3 services with Sky

So the upshot is that you are on Sky's "up to 20 Meg" LLU service (5 posters have confirmed that) and you are getting 10 Meg, about par for your attenuation.

So, unless you have some reason for leaving which you haven't told us, you will not benefit from going to TT and will possibly lose out by having your usage limited and by locking your line to TT. Would the account holder want to do that?

I'd stay with Sky, no point changing.
