https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Broadband/Weird-Sky-Checker-readings/m-p/4688934#M405392 <P>So Yesterday I had Sky Fibre installed, I usually lag on my favourite online game, but now that is solved, so first day I am very impressed, during yesterday I decided to check my download speed out, see if I was getting the 151mb I was meant too, it definitely felt like I was. I did the Sky speed checker and was shocked to see I was still getting my old speed of 64mb. So I did 3 other tests on 3rd party speed testers and each time it came out at 103mb, all 3 other tests gave 103mb, sky checker 4 times throughout day said everything was good and I was getting 64mb. Today I ran the same tests, Sky checker now says 151mb, the other tests says 97mb.</P><P>Can anyone explain this weird reading? I fully believe the Sky speed checker is indeed false and just tells you what your speed should be in line with your contract.&nbsp;</P> Wed, 10 Jul 2024 10:35:16 GMT Michael+Cody 2024-07-10T10:35:16Z https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Broadband/Weird-Sky-Checker-readings/m-p/4688934#M405392 <P>So Yesterday I had Sky Fibre installed, I usually lag on my favourite online game, but now that is solved, so first day I am very impressed, during yesterday I decided to check my download speed out, see if I was getting the 151mb I was meant too, it definitely felt like I was.

It likely had not updated on the day you were checking it which is why its gone from 64mbps to 151mbps.&nbsp;</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>3rd party speed tests measure the slowest part of the link between the internet and your device, this is usually the WiFi connection itself. Have you run a speedtest via an ethernet connected device?</P> Mon, 15 Jul 2024 16:03:50 GMT https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Broadband/Weird-Sky-Checker-readings/m-p/4692988#M406303 jamesn123 2024-07-15T16:03:50Z
