@Pannyg67 moving the ONT box is not simple and requires an engineer so you would have to talk to Sky to find out what is possible and how much they will charge. However moving the hub to a hbetter position is often far simpler so you can do that yupurself you just need to buy a longer Ethernet cable which are very easy to find online ir at most hardware shops. You dont need anything fancy as a simpke Cat5e cable will carry speeds up to 1Gb/s for 100 metres.
