Replace Sky router with own

If you have a broadband connection (DSL, Cable Modem, Fixed Wireless, Fibre Optic) from Sky Broadband and you are on a Sky broadband router, then you can use any modem that is supported by Sky Broadband .

Yes, you can use the Sky Broadband with any router in your home internet that is supplied by Sky Broadband instead of using the standard Sky Q Hub . However, the router must be compatible with the DHCP Option 1/MER connection protocol.

Open your browser and type 192.168. 0.1 into your address bar. When prompted enter the username: admin and password: sky or your WiFi password . Select the Maintenance Tab .

If it’s superfast (FTTC) Sky use MER (DHCP Option 60/61) no PPPoE . Like you I’m a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.
