Sky is no longer just offering TV to those happy to have a satellite dish stuck to the outside of their homes. Since 2021 the firm has also been beaming premium content to its clever Glass TVs - along with the more recent addition of its mini Stream box - via the web instead. Both of these gadgets use a standard internet connection to get movies, shows and sporting action into homes. It’s a simple and effective idea that cuts down on the need for disruptive installation but it seems a slight change to Sky’s terms could now mean some may need to consider upgrading their broadband speeds.
When Sky Glass and Stream launched, Sky confirmed on its website that the minimum speeds required to view content was just 10Mbps. However, as spotted by the eagle-eyed team at ISPreview, that’s now changed with the Sky bumping this figure up to a much faster 25Mbps.
