Wildanet Fibre and Sky Talk for landline

soulgaze2 — Sat, 14 Jun 2025 15:11:59 GMT

In our area in Cornwall Wildanet is installing full fibre not by BT. Now that fibre is live and available can I just switch sky broadband 20mbs to Wildanet 200mbs but leave my phone provider as Sky?

Almost certainly not, I'm afraid. Like most other providers, Sky sell their landline service bundled with broadband.

Appreciate can't split line but just spoiled with sky shield, wanted best of both worlds.

Never used caller ID, does it easily screen scam calls? Which used to get regular basis about virus infected pc, Problem with BT line etc

Caller ID simply displays the number (or name, if they're in your address book) of the caller. There's no active call screening. Have a look at a phone with Truecall built in.
