Shane Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 There are two types. Broadband over satellite (sky/astra) and Sky broadband. Sky broadband is a ADSL service being rolled out by Rupert, but at present only available in major cities. This will be free for Sky satellite subscribers. However if you apply now and are not in the right area you get offered the chance to pay for it and bassically get sold a BT broadband connection with a sky badge. No thanks! Broadband over satellite though is a different thing, WOOSH! You still need a outgoing dial up though if you go either the Astra or Eutelsat route.

Shane Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Yes I know, I should have read the title. "Sky BY broadband" different thing again. I was talking Sky broadband. Yes I am a muppet.[OOPS][/OOPS] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MARTIN R Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 I was considering it as I want to change from Blueyonder, I am sure I can get a broadband package cheaper than the £25 a month I pay at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conrad Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Just to clarify for a few folks - Sky By Broadband is not BB. It's basically Sky Movies and Sky Sports (if you've subscribed to those channels) over the net. You don't watch movies or games live but you can download it all afterwards. Oh and it's totally free! I've been using it a few months. Great for catching any highlights I've missed from the footy and I'm constantly downloading movies to watch when I get chance. Gives you the freedom to watch what you want whenever you want and you never miss anything - especially the weekly Soccerette from Soccer AM.
