Bridge Model on Sky Hub 4.0

dublinsky — Tue, 16 Dec 2025 13:22:52 GMT

I am interested in moving to Sky fiber Dublin, currently using broadband from Virgin Media.

I currently have the VM router in bridge mode, connected to my Ubiquity Cloud Gateway Ultra https://eu.store.ui.com/eu/en/products/ucg-ultra which manages a broader network including many access points and switches. I have an old house with thick walls, wired for ethernet in a recent refurbishment.

I am told Sky Hub 4.0 doesn't have a bridge / modem mode. I don't want to use the sky router as my network as it has less capability than my Ubiquity system.

How can I use Sky Hub 4.0 with my Ubiquity router?

Following some research, some more specific questions
- is the service terminated with an ONT

- are there authentication or other requirements

- can I connect my UGC Ultra directly to the ONT

@dublinsky Yes, direct on the ONT and using the ROI settings and also if your Unfi works that is!

Think this is the ROI settings needed below.

Connection type pppoe

Username anything@skydsl

Password anything

Vlan enable and type in 10
