To order broadband bear in mind it can take 12 days for openreach to activate an fttc line and even longer for fttp

The Sky router left behind by the previous occupants could be loaned equipment, and if it is they will be chased for it by Sky so don't dispose of it. Any router for your order should be a new one.

Unfortunately neither the previous occupant having used Sky as an ISP or them leaving their Hub behind (which they shouldn't have done) speeds up the process: there's still around a two week (ten working day) lead time from order to activation for FTTC, and potentially much longer for FTTP provision at an address with no current optical connection.

You cannot use that hardware, nor is it your responsibility.  You might however consider hanging onto it for a while in case the previous occupant realises they shouldn't have left it behind.
