Sky fibre user here. You absolutely can use alt router! Just look at their forums. There are limits, but Asus and others do have options for you. By the way, it is also much faster and reliable wifi than Sky's own device.
Sorry, I oversimplified, I can't use my router with Sky. ๐
Even having switched it over to open-source FW and having dug around inside it over SSH, I couldn't find a way to get my Nighthawk R7800 to do the Option 61 thing.
It's not a particular great router, but it otherwise does everything I need it to do and is all setup, so still I figured I'd put up with the white box for a year and then switch again... That was probably nearly two years ago now ๐
