Possible new customer - Sky Q question

I'm looking at Sky Q and Sky FTTP broadband.

 

Is there any reason why I can't use my own router instead the Sky one?

Thanks. I have a professional grade router which will work with Openreach FTTP,  and I would be connecting the Sky Q by ethernet.

 

I just wanted to be sure that I could replace the Sky router with my own.

DrayTek. Mine is currently a Vigor 2926, but they have several other models that will do the same job.

As long as you dont want to use Sky VOIP & your router supports DHCP Option 61 then your fine
