Sky full fibre 150- speed

Phil2023x — Sat, 29 Nov 2025 10:51:36 GMT

Speed to my hub is 152 mbs. In service checker speed to home is good.

I've upgraded to sky full fibre 150 I haven't been impressed with the speed, as when I am connected to my WiFi to my iPhone then when I am on the internet then on my phone it's slow and when I turn WiFi off and use my 4g data on my iPhone the websites loads faster compared to when connected via my WIFI, I reset my phone and test my hub but still not great.

I thought 152mbs was a good speed?

@Phil2023x 150Mb/s is a good speed, but what you get from the sky Hub to the iPhone over a wireless wi-fi signal connection is what it can be, the hub and the phone need to know and work well with each other! You need to say what sky Hub you are using as a starting point!

And a iPhone 17 has lot's off issues with eveyone just a heads up to that!

Also on a new connection, would go to your account, products and see were the sky Broadband Shield is at currently!

@Phil2023x 150 is the speed to your hub . That speed would be fine for most things, including streaming UHD programs.

You will not be getting 150 on devices connected by WiFi, because the signal can be affected by a lot of things.

I'm sure one of the regular contributors to the forum will be able to post a link to advice on improving your WiFi

@Phil2023x Poor WiFi coverage is probably the most common question we get in the forum. In many homes a single Sky hub cannot provide a usable wifi signal in every room due to the layout and type of construction of the property especially in older homes. Assuming the hub is in the best possible position which is out in the open on a surfsce then the only answer is additional wifi sources.

Your choice.is to either buy Sky's add-on WiFi Max bundle which can supply up to 3 extenders see https://www.sky.com/help/articles/sky-wifi-max or buy your own wifi system and use that instead of the Sky hub's WiFi.

I'm on 150 and using the Global speed test on my laptop via wifi I get 150Mbs

On my desktop via ethrtnet cable I also get 150 Mbs.

So surprised I'm not loosing speed at the laptop.

(prior to Sky it was 100 service which was highly satisfactory but the increase to 150 is very noticable a lot faster.)

@David382 150Mb/s is not to far a stretch on either band and on a reasonable wireless wi-fi signal to get too! Those not hitting that speed may just be having some problems, that sucker can be way hard to find out for many reason's. Good to have the baseline and you have well established your's!👍👍🤞
