Hi everyone,

Was wondering if it's possible to use my own router with Sky Broadband and if you guys are using your own and the complexity level of it software wise?

I plan on upgrading the hardware at home with the Ubiquiti Edgerouter X to fix bufferbloat as I tend to play video games while some family members will watch netflix/youtube etc... which causes the dumb Sky router to be unable to sustain this wisely, and will be adding a UAP-Lite access point to improve the wifi as it doesn't work in some locations of the house.

Appreciate your thoughts/experiences.

Afaik you can use your own router with Sky. They will not offer support for any other router but their own.
