so currently im with SKY and getting 1mb/s download speeds and its okay, but comparing it when i used to be with BE* my ping gone up 10-20ms when gaming online.

its not too terrible ping is usually around 50-60ms, but soon i should get fiber enabled in my building. so the question is should i stay with sky and hope the fiber lowers my ping to my old 30ms pings

, or should i switch to other fiber/adsl providers.

i mainly game at home but others in my family also use internet for youtube/streaming sites most of the time.

megabits or megabytes?

You could ask Sky to put you on the gamer profile.

Who will be bringing fibre to your building?

Well open reach has a sticker on my bt cab outside. i called bt and they said work should be completed in end of march. So i assume i can get fibre from all the usual fibre providers.

im getting 1 mega byte

Ah, FTTC. Sky fibre should be fine.
