 Solution

Suppose $G$ is topologically generated by $d$ elements. An open subgroup $H$ of index $n$ gives a continuous transitive coset actionA continuous homomorphism $G\to S_n$ is determined by the images of the $d$ topological generators, so there are at most $|S_n{|}^d$ such homomorphisms. Each has only finitely many point stabilizers. Therefore $G$ has only finitely many open subgroups of index $n$.
