Wifi 6 Routers Compatible with Sky FTTP broadband

Any suggestions on the above please?
Struggling to find a router that works with Sky's weird DHCP option 61 setup.

    Loads of discussions on skys community forum about the problem

    It sounds like they’ve released something already - but currently not for those with Sky Q (just those with Sky Glass)….hopefully it won’t be too much longer until it’s available.

    Ubiquiti UDR - fantastic and supports Option 61.

    Had one a good while.

    Is this still an issue with FTTP? I thought it was different from FTTC?

    I used to be able to connect without option 61 providing IPv6 was configured correctly, both when with Sky FTTC and Now FTTC, however it stopped working for me without option 61 clientID some time ago on my FTTC connection.

    I've no idea what the current situation with FTTP is, but I'd suggest it would be wise to get a router that supported dhcp clientid anyway.

    The forum post by -rpnz- a sky employee explains how it used to work.
