I'm new the this community and will be leaving Virgin for Sky next month.
My work phone is wi-fi, willl this work ok.
If it's a VOIP phone which connects to your broadband service, not your landline phone socket, it should be ok.
I still have my home landlines but the main one is connected to back of Router/hub. I don't have an accessible phone point anymore, will a new one be fitted ...... assuming one is needed and Sky don't work on same wi-fi for phones as Virgin.
You'll have internet calls, where your landline phone needs to be connected to your broadband Hub, as now, so that calls are routed via the internet. There won't any other phone socket. If you've existing extension sockets they won't work with Sky Talk (landline). Note that the only connection to Sky's landline is via the physical phone socket at the back of the Hub. It's not possible to connect wirelessly to the Hub.
If Signal to my working comp is low, would I be able to have an additional Router in the kitchen to boost Wi-fi ?
Not a router (unless it can be configured to work as an access point), but Sky can provide a wifi booster where necessary.
Re the dish installation .... My TV is in a corner in centre of house, will the cable from outside be hidden or run on floor or ? We have fully fitted carpet so a tad concerned how they'll manage without it looking awful.
Sky's standard installation involves installing the cables through an outside wall, then running them as necessary along skirting boards.
Thanks so much for any information you can give ..... getting jittery : (
