You have a cable from outside to inside did you really think wifi would give you the speed that a cable to the hub would do?

also get a better cable

I have no doubt your unhappy and you want VM to fix it or make it better with theirs pods that causes more trouble or you can get a better wifi router with 1Gb ports or better and put hub in modem mode

im not using an ethernet cable for this device, this is just wifi, but i have used cat 8 and cat 6 cables for ethernet and it doesn't change anything. VM also guarantee a minimum of 30Mbps over WiFi but im getting 7Mbps

What device is it?

Computer

Model? Distance from the HUB/Router?

If your 'computer' has a cheap wireless card it will cause slow speeds.

I built the computer myself but i do not know the wifi cards model. The router is 10 meters away in an upstairs room
