Using My Own Router - ASUS RT-AC86U

[Neil1310]

Hi, 

I've just had Sky broadband installed. Iy came with their home hub 6. 

I'd like to use my own router so I have better WiFi cover in my house. My router is Asus RT-AC86U.

I'm unsure if I replace Sky's home hub with my router, or connect my router to Sky's built hub.  Also, any specific settings.

Is there a set up guide out there that I can use.  

Thanks

Whether to fully replace the sky hub with the asus depends on whether you want to use sky internet calls

Make sure asus is on latest firmware 

If you are on full fibre in the uk then to replace the sky hub

Locate client identifier (option 61) and enter anything@skydsl|anything
