Sky fttp home network cabinet setups

[MCarey7037]

Hi I'm doing research in home networks, I've installed a cabinet with a unmanaged 16 port switch with cat 6 running to all my tvs (5) an sky q an mini boxes (4), I'm looking to go fully managed and know unifi will work with sky fibre, but that's expensive, I've looked at Tp-link an do like omada but they don't support sky fibre without a standalone modem, just wondering what everyone else is running? I want WiFi 6 access points I'd rather the in wall versions, any help would be appreciated also pictures of setups would be even better,

For FTTP the Openreach ONT is the 'modem'.

Sorry meant router

@MCarey7037 you can connect third party routers to the Openreach ONT the most widely used brand other forum members use are from Asus as they support the type of authentication Sky uses.  That is DHCPv4 Option 61 with a standard string in the form anything@skydsl|anything. You can also use DHCPv6 PD which works on most but not all exchanges. You requirments seem quite complex for a domestic  set up but no doubt you have your reasons for choosing a complex set up.

If you have Sky TV services you need to be aware that Sky Q boxes can be problematic on managed networks.
