  Won't the Sky hub be no longer required or do you mean the wireless connector ?

  for Sky Fibre you require 2 boxes to get connected - Openreach modem and Sky Hub.

  Can I use home plugs between the open reach modem and the sky hub.
  Thanks in advance.

  
  You can use homeplugs for this connection but there are, surprisingly, some claimed issues over reduction of sync speeds for the FTTC connection when using homeplugs even though the homeplugs arent actually carrying the VDSL signal http://forums.thinkbroadband.com/fibre/t/4206253-home-plugs-lowering-snr-margin.html
  
  But, of course, you can simply use a cat5 ethernet cable - do you not have a cable already running between these two points to currently extend the telephone connection?
