If you are on MER (VDSL) you will have to install DD-WRT and get your skyUN/PW by sniffing the sr-101 using wireshark. Then it is just a matter of entering your sky credentials into the new routers appropriate section, in the appropriate form ie sometimes has to be in binary.

If you are on PPPoA (adsl) ypu wi;ll still have to sniff your UN/PW but you may be able to just enter them into the router using its standard firmware.

As suggested by Matt D if you patiently trawl the forums at sky user all will be revealed.

If all that is too complex then it is possible to connect a new router to the sr-101 DMZ (as per guide found on sky user) This is a simpler solution that suffices for many users of whom I am one.
