The Sky Broadband Hub (SR203) is compatible with FTTP.

 

The Q Hub actually works for broadband, but doesn't support Sky Talk Internet Calls, so Sky swaps those out by default.

Thanks, we dont have sky talk so could we potentially keep our router but switch to fibre?

Sky would send a replacement automatically: either a Sky Broadband Hub, or a Max Hub if you chose to add the WiFi Max subscription supplement.  Potentially you could keep using a Q Hub instead, but Sky is taking all those out of use over the coming year as they don't comply with new Government security requirements for internet routers.
