Sky broadband

I have sky broadband and 'sky boost', my total Mb/s speed is 75Mb/s if i canceled the 'boost' what would i be left running on, I have tried for over an hour to ask sky for the 'boost' value, but to no avail, they just keep going round in circles, I am tring to assess if i cancel 'boost' and still opperate on whats left.

The boost allows you to claim wifi mesh boxes in addition to daily line monitoring .  It doesn't affect the speed to the hub just the wifi coverage within the house

And not even that if you've never claimed a separate hardware booster.

Broadband Boost used to upgrade the router model from a Q Hub to a Sky Broadband Hub, but the latter is now standard hardware.

 

It also used to unlock the Broadband Buddy parental controls which are now extinct.
