@Bri64

Getting any form of Ultrafast from Sky requires there to be Openreach FTTP infrastructure in the vicinity of your address. That currently covers about 65% of properties in the UK

If it's in the UK, putting the address into the BT Wholesale Availability Checker should indicate which broadband provisioning type is applicable.

It's the table and the two text lines below it which are most useful.
