Anyone know if there's anything I can do to improve my upload speed? Getting reasonable (not good) download speeds of 4-10mbps depending on the time of day, but my upload speed never passes 0.2 and I get significant delays while video calling as a result. Can't get fibre here (they'll never get permission to dig up central London and install it) unfortunately.

Maybe it's your ISP, some really throttle upload speeds.

I'm with BT so nobody terribly niche, but I have an open engineer case with them to come and look at it. Hopefully that improves things a bit, but who knows.

Right, currently a BT customer but looking to move. Sky stream package is favourite. TV and Broadband, netflix and prime included. £39 per month - saving £13.

Anyone got it? Alternatives?

Is that for an 18 month contract? Does the price jump significantly after that?

Never used pucks

I think this is what you need if you want to watch different things on different tv in same house, extra cost - no suprise :

========
With a physical dish/skyQ you'd need mini boxes to do the same - again extra cost.

My old hd box has RF out, so I use that to distribute to the bedroom - but obviously I can't watch something different to the main box - which isn't so much of a problem for us as the kids stream stuff.

I’m looking for options on our TV package. Currently have BT broad band and free view tv via a box with BT sport but that has run out. Well the sport has I think the TV may have done so too as there is no signal today and there was on Saturday. And how do I know if my tv is a smart tv as it is a bit old but a good Panasonic one.
