will be getting sky fiber in about a week and should get up to 40mbs. My question is about wireless network speeds as i have a WD live media streaming device and wondered whether the sky fiber router will be fast enough to stream 1080p video wirelessly from a PC up stairs to my TV downstairs.
4kWp, South facing, 16 x phono solar panels, Solis inverter, Lincolnshire.

Your best bet would be to go over to the sky help and support forums on their website. There will be thousands of sky fiber users and no doubt one will know the answer to your question. Id assume it would be no problem though. Your new router will no doubt handle more than 40mbs. I also wonder if the sky router is like virgin as in you could just put the router into a modem mode and just use your existing router for wireless functions if that already works.0 -
Sky fibre would use a VDSL modem supplied by BT OR which would connect to the Sky hub.That gum you like is coming back in style.0
