    I've switched to sky for broadband, today is the activation day.

    I've plugged in everything and can pick up wireless signal but not connecting. Sky information says it can be activated anytime up to midnight.

    For Sky BB users here just wondering what stage of the day was yours ready to go?

    If its a regular line, usually it takes 7-10 working days to activate broadband after the voice services were switched over (which is usually 24-48 hours from initializing the port).

    Make sure you try again in the morning before you ring.

    Rang earlier. Says it's delayed until tomorrow due to Eircom being behind

    I noticed a fair few taking longer than the norm with Vodafone at the moment- all down to Eircom I'd imagine

    Sky rep said Eircom have fallen behind due to recent bad weather

    Fixing current lines will take precedence over jumpering new ones most likely. Dont hold your breadth op.
