Does sky have a router with more than 2 output ports

The 2016 Q Hub (now approaching obsolescence) has two ethernet ports.

Both the 2019 Sky Broadband Hub and the 2023 Max Hub have four ethernet ports.

Sky will be swapping out the remaining Q Hubs over the next year because they can't support Sky Talk Internet Calls and don't meet the new minimum standards for device security (specifically they have fixed weak local administrator credentials)

@Colin162

They might be amenable to replacing a Q Hub with a Sky Broadband Hub if you agreed to a new minimum term, but will probably want to upsell you to a WiFi Max subscription.
