@Claire16 very little information on your set up but it is highly unlikely it can be used to connect to a Sky service. Sky use a system called DHCP v4 Option61 to authenticatewhich is fairly specialised and is not supported by most home mesh systems. If you service is over copper you would need a modem as well.

Your router could be set up behind a Sky hub with its wifi turned off in a double NAT system which should work or place the Taotronics unit in Bridge mode leaving the Sky hub as the router.
