If you have an engineer install they bring everything with them you need.

Hi my broadband installed hub3 the light on the front was yellowish i asked engineer about that and he said the White light was to bright so they changed it to a dimmer light i have the 500 mbps but can only achieve 95 download using Firestick and ethernet connection yet on my iphone my speed is 450/510 using new powerline adapters 1000 ?

the light is not relevant to any issue you have.

the firestick probably only has a 100Mbps network connection, therefore 95Mbps sounds about right.

your iphone shows that you have no issues with your virgin connection.

Correct, firesticks only have a 10/100 ethernet port.

Ironically connecting via wireless should be quicker!

ok, so what does that tell you?
it tells you that the ethernet adapator you have connected to the Firestick 4k Max is 100Mbps, whereas the one connected to the other firestick is 1000Mbps.
