Broadband upgrade

I have upgraded by current Broadband to Broadband Ultrafast1.

Why does an engineer need to call to install the new Sky Max Hub when I already have broadband.

Re: Broadband upgrade

I currently have Sky Fibre Unlimited but have upgraded to Sky Broadband Ultrafast 1 with a Sky Max Hub.

What does an engineer need to do?  Can't I just change the router's over?
