There is no mention of it yet from the powers that be.

 

Sky piloted its 150Mbps in june 2020'ish and 500Mbps in july 2021 if that offers any glimpse of a timescale. However i have my doubts we will be hearing about it anytime soon

There's no obligation for any ISP to resell a particular speed band: it all comes down to marketing cost vs profit margin.

I think we'll see a gigabit product launch when Sky release a WiFi 6/E router.

@cookiemonsteruk I bet some do in busy households. However, my SR203 maxes my 500Mb connection out through three walls and 15m distance - maybe I need to get my cats an iPad each 😂
