Theoretically either a Q booster or a v1 Sky Broadband Booster can provide that functionality (but not the v2 Sky Broadband Booster which doesn't have an ethernet port)
However Sky won't supply one for that purpose, and adding the additional monthly subscription required for booster loan to improve household WiFi coverage would be a very expensive way of solving the problem, given USB to WiFi adapters are from around £20.
