Sky broadband booster Ethernet Splitter

Can I plug a splitter into my broadband booster to connect a laptop and VoIP phone?

You could create a wireless to ethernet bridge directly connecting booster to laptop via ethernet. If you want to connect more than 2 devices an unmanaged switch may be possible. But if you are referring to sky voip internet calls the phone does need to be connected to the sky hub

As @cookiemonsteruk indicates, the appropriate hardware is an ethernet switch.  Ethernet 'splitters' do exist, but these are passive devices which do not switch data and so will not achieve what you wish.

Personally I dislike bridging, have typically found it to be unreliable, and try to avoid it where possible.
