ive had everything with sky for some time now - broadband, tv and phone.
the broadband wont connect throughout the whole house - the main phone socket it right by the front door and so i cannot plug the router into it without it being a hazard for all the wires etc, its plugged in in the lounge
before we were with orange and never had a problem with connectivity.
for months now i have had the problem that the internet wont connect in certain spots in the house
DS is a computer programmer and needs the net. it wont connect in his bedroom.
ive rung several times, always talk to some goober who has no idea what they are talking about - DS runs rings around them because he does know what he is talking about...
so today i tried for one final time to get them to send another router. they refused.
so i asked if its worth losing £70 month phone bill plus the tenner broadband....
apparently it is. they will not send another router. DS has said he could buy one and hack in....(sky apparently password protect their routers where as BT give you the user name and password, so if you need to, you can get another router)...but cannot be arsed.
so im off to BT....does anyone have anything to tell me about them? are they good? worth it? does the internet work through out the house?
fuck Sky i say! roll on Virgin getting their cable out here....they can stick their tv then aswell!
