The Sky social tariff product is 40/10 FTTC, so should deliver around 35Mbs.  That's getting marginal for Glass running UHD content, particularly if there are other devices at the address sharing the bandwidth.

BT Halo 3+ Ultrafast FTTP (500Mbs), BT Smart Hub 2

Re: Social tariff

From my personal opinion in what I'm seeing on forums etc. anything below 100mbs is always dependant on how reliable your internet is. And I mean from the box at the end of the road not just  your supplier/router.

Have to take into account potentials of busy Wi-Fi channels in evenings that can often reduce 35mbs to 10mbs over the evening. 
I keep suggesting to people its a good idea to run some Wi-Fi speed tests each day in the location the tv would be at different times to check how it performs. Especially at 5-8pm. And then you know if it's worth trying it for the 31 day period.
