What to do with old broadband router

We have just upgraded from Black Box Router  to a New White Hub with fibre.    Can I throw the old black router away?

@Spike13  Don't throw it away without confirming it doesn't need returning to sky as some are loaned property and must be returned 

 

what's the model number of old router

Its  quite an old horizontal one.   We now have a standup white one which works with fibre.    I have searched and searched online for what to do with the old one, but I cannot find anything which tells me what to do with it :0(

It appears that Sky is no longer requiring the return of ER110/115 Q Hubs: these are all due to be removed from service anyway because they don't meet new UK Government internet security standards.

 

You can send it back to Sky for recycling if you wish: despite what optimistic eBay vendors believe, such hardware has no monetary value.

You can return it for recycling pet the link below.  It is pretty much obsolete. If you return it for recycling contact sky so they know its being returned
