Back to Sky from Virgin media

[Ricey155]

Think ive been missing out, ok VM have been good to me offered a decent service and broadband never ever drops out and fast 10mb

i VM to tell them i needed a new deal as id been made redundant and needed to save some money etc, could i downgrade yes sir no problem you'le save 25p lol why ?? because your getting a triple bundle yeah im downgrading from xl tv to large tv anyways i was fuming 25p cheers very helpful

so my backs up and i started thinking, im paying for VMHD i hardly get zip all, i get no red button or anytime the new atlantic(HBO) looks decent as well

i have no option option to watch on a laptop either, so im going back to SKY

slightly less money than VM and a whole better package to boot, lets hope the internet works this time round

Looking forward to the cancellation call to VM today when they re-open at 8am

Call centres in india and people who really don't understand

the free sky routers are they any good ?? the last one 4 years back was dreadful

The current crop of Sky routers are alright, but could do better as far as WiFi is concerned IMHO.

I would strongly suggest that you keep your existing VM router and configure it to work as a WiFi Switch if the signal is good.

There are various threads on this forum that will provide you with the information on how to achieve this.

received my new router in the post D link DSL2640s looks very basic and not high tech at all lol

ive got a cisco router but its cable router, the vm job is just a box going through the router, i guess i'll sort it out when its connected 7th February

not that i wanted it that early and i did say i was thinking around the 20th lol

crossing my figners this time its success with sky broadband

Just connect the D-Link to your phone line and then use a patch cable to connect it to your Cisco Router - Turn off wireless on the D-Link and that should be all you need to do..
