Sky Full Fibre but without a Sky Hub....

Im thinking of moving to Sky Full fibre but couple of questions first.....

 

My house has been extended since the original phoneline was installed and the chances of getting anywhere near that is remote....

Will Sky/Openreach run this to a different place?

 

I have Ethernet around the house with TP-Link  Deco providing Wifi where I need it, the current Sky box is just a dumb router really...

Does the Openreach ONT provide an ethernet port and works as the default router?

So I can plug directly into my home ethernet network?

I assume so but wanted to check

Location of the copper phoneline is largely irrelevant for FTTP (although the incoming optical cable may follow the same route as far as an external wall of the property).

The ONT has an ethernet port, but it is a modem, not a router

Only if the device which will be acting as router is compatible with Sky FTTP
