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.

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.
