I am moving house on Friday and i have just found out that because it is a new estate, there is no cable!! This causes me a problem because i currently have NTL's 3 for £30 package. And its great, i get broadband for 9.99 a month and phone with free evening and weekend calls and also my digital TV.

I have been really happy with NTL, never had a problem with my broadband and the new on demand TV is great.

So now i need to pick an internet provider, phone company and sort out some kind of digital tv.

My first thought was Sky, but you can't use Sky broadband with a Mac. Bugger!!

I don't want a BT phone but i do want broadband. What options do i have without a 12 month contract?? As i will have NTL back when they put cable in the area

Does anyone know if there is a way of making Sky broadband work on a Mac (i'm wireless through Airport Express) and do i need a BT landline to have Sky??

I'm confused, please help......

Yes you can.

Why doesn't it work with MAC's?

Surely if they provide a wireless router then it's platform independant.

If you haven't given them 30 days notice that you were leaving them you won't be happy with them.

SKY BB works thru OSX on Mac's . least thats what we learnt in the training sessions ..lol
and yes, you DO need a BT line for it. not just your sky
