Leave Sky BB to Virgin ?

[BEN_UK]

Hello,

I am currently on Sky Broadband and i believe it the connect package, allows up to 8Mb, the router is syncing at 5.5Mb

Early hours of the morning and day time the internet is fine, speed tests report close to 5Mb speeds so all is good.

However after 4pm the internet is rubbish, do a speed test then and its reports back 0.5M's !!!!! what the hell not even a meg Its the same every day between 4 and midnight.

Sky say there nothing they can do its just my exchange and the package i am on.

Would cancelling Sky and moving to Virgin broadband help ? i am not in a fibre optic area so it would still come down the phone line. But with virgin would i get 5Mb speed all day all the time ???

Thanks Ben

Just looked at ADSL24 and looks like an option.

I check my exchange with my phone number, heres the results they any good ??? http://www.samknows.com/broadband/exchange/EMWOODB

Think I'd either go cable (even though its Virgin) or ADSL24.

If i went with ADSL24 would i get the same speed all day then ?? like 5Mb even in the evening ???

Skys good in the day time just at night its rubbish, 0.5Mb carnt do anything. I want to game (PS3).
