Do I need a max hub to upgrade to broadband full fibre 300 or can I still use my router linked to my sky Q set-up? Thanks for any help and advice

@richie3869 Upright is the SR203, fully compatible with fttc copper and fttp fibre internet, you will receive a Ethernet Cable from sky to connect to your new ONT that OR/Installer will fit.

Use the time wisely to see where is best, nothing worse than a badly placed ONT and then not getting the wireless signal all over the property because its stuck now at one end and your cable is so short.

Thanks for the help and reply. Could you clarify the acronyms ONT and ON for me in any future discussions with Sky
