I would always check with Tesco after you move to Sky as you dont want a bill next month from Tesco for no reason lol.
It's hard to say mate. I have only ever seen a few migrations go wrong but that was always down to the new ISP . When my dad moved from AOL to Sky it was changed over in about...
Your internet doesn't go down when you get your MAC code. If everything goes smoothly with the migration you should only experience about a few minutes of downtime if that!
For you yeah as you have a good looking line lol.
Just depends on Sky, should be around 10 days. Just need to get your MAC code from Tesco.
No probs BTW
This is the important bit.
Line Attenuation 18 US Line Attenuation 20
So you have got a 20db Line Attenuation for d/stream which is pretty darn good lol :)
If Sky get your connection right then you could be looking at a full connection speed.
Shame you cant get Be Unlimted in your area...

2.21875 Mbps D/stream
0.28125 Mbps U/stream

Dont get me wrong your pretty...
No Sky are good my Dad uses Sky but they don't go up to 20Mbps. So looking at that you can get Sky LLU which is good. Just need to find out what kind of speed you can achieve.
Who are you with at present and how do you connect to the net i.e modem or router?
^ You will need good bandwidth of you want to download and play on live at the same time with no lag. Just browse which ISP's you can choose from via DSL zone and take it from there.
