Hi there, so I won’t need to buy a modem then as the sky Q router will act as it.

Yes that's right, I'm unsure if they allow you to do away with the hub completely but for all intents and purposes you only need the router.

I did actually ask them and got the in terms and conditions they don’t allow other routers. So by turning it into a modem I’m still technically keeping it lol. Well I shall order the XR500 in ten days once my line has gone through their testing phase to get my best line speed it is supposed to be minimum of 68Mpbs max of 80Mpbs download and upload of 20Mpbs
