No Link. Just one of the things they told us at work recently when they changed all the broadband pricing.

Sky network (SVBN) rollout to be completed, further OFFNET areas to be moved to ONNET - currently 70% of population coverage to be brought closer to 90%, and an increase in the bandwidth on Connect to improve the currently poor customer experience on this product.

They are also planning to increase the bandwidth available to the Connect service later this year.
No - I am no longer on Sky connect, it was nearly 3 years ago!
at the time I seem to remember it being an "up to 8meg" service which out of the box was no where near. I apologise I confused my figures (age thing!)
However skyuser`s tweaks allowed me to get full use out of the service.
I personally never suffered any form of service limitation - neither capping nor shaping and based on that experience would actually consider a return to Sky, but I have no desire to use their TV or telephone services which makes using their BB uneconomic.
