How to get a WiFi extender

I have a desktop upstairs and the hub is down stairs, so I need an extender upstairs so I can plug in an ethernet cable.

Sky loans wireless booster hardware free under the terms of the 'WiFi Guarantee' element of 'Broadband Boost' and the 'Enhanced Wall to Wall WiFi Guarantee' part of the 'WiFi Max' subscription supplement: they don't otherwise provide or sell them except to resolve issues with Sky Q. Inevitably some have leaked onto a certain auction site, but Sky won't offer support with using these.  Confusingly the 'Wall to Wall WiFi Guarantee' doesn't actually provide booster hardware, and is essentially a sales lead generator for the supplements mentioned above.

Also note that the v2 release of the Sky Broadband booster does not have an ethernet port: the v1 is equipped with one but Sky doesn't appear to send those out any more.
