In the mean time, can you answer some questions:
What Village do you live in?
Did they install the old smaller Wifi6 pods or the new larger WiFi7 Pods?
Where did they install the pods?
Are you using your own router?
How are these electric line devices installed?
Update/answer to your??
I live in the village of Lake Deaton. They installed the main wifi 7 pod in the guest room. I recently added one smaller pod in the MBR so coverage in the house is good throughout. The TP Link "wired" connection via electrical wires in the house to the TV have me 65ish up and download. I switched to wifi and it upped to the 90mbs that the rest of the devices get. Still using Quantum router. The best I get in the house is in the 90mbs range. I understand that my "plan" speed of 940 is an"up to" speed and that is what it shows coming to the house. I also understand that the 940 is not what I can expect to get over wifi; however, 90 just seems way low. I will say that I have no issues with buffering or such when streaming via YTTV/YT or other apps. So maybe this is what I get for $35/month.
