Has anyone recently moved to Sky Broadband?

How have you found it.

Anyone got a static IP through them as well?

Currently thinking about moving from One NZ (Vodafone)

I do host a family server, Which does not work behind double NAT, which some ISPs overseas have started to use as more people join them, anyone had this issue with Sky?

The back end is 2 degrees.

People here have said they are the same as any other Vocus provider; you might find no significant difference between them and One NZ.

Also, It depends on what you are trying to achieve. I had switched providers before and regretted it.

I have been with Sky for two years and only had one outage (and all of Vocus went down that that time)

Sky has their own relationship with Chorus and their own ASN with their own IP ranges, but the heavy lifting is down by Vocus/2Degrees
