Interesting you mention this since you are so correct. I keep very busy "fixing" my neighbor's, friends and referrals WiFi installations so they work properly.

One of the issues, including Quantum is the tech's don't have the time or the equipment to place the WiFi devices properly in your home and or they just don't have the experience with proper WiFi placement. With cable they tend to put the WiFi device in a cabinet, behind furniture or under your desk because people don't want to see all that equipment. With Quantum, they need an ethernet jack to connect to and there isn't always one in an optimal spot. As I have mentioned, proper placement of the WiFi equipment is critical for a good experience.
