You can buy routers from a number of good stores.

 

What are you trying to achieve?

@Kirts  A 2nd router won't acheive that, what you need is access points, trying to get 2 router working on the same broadband connection is fiddley at best.  So I would opt for an access point and possible anetwork switch.

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.

@Kirts your best solution is to get an ethernet cable run from your Sky hub to your summer house and some ling of access point unless you have Sky Q as a Sky Q mini will give you both wifi and tv there.

A 'second router' is almost always entirely inappropriate for such a task.
