Fixed wireless access depends on a radio link as part of the internet path. Capacity and conditions can vary with the service and installation. A wired connection to the home router removes local Wi-Fi from the test but not the access radio link.
Separate the two wireless stages
The television's Wi-Fi and the provider's fixed wireless connection are different links. Improving one does not automatically repair the other. Note which stage a test actually changes before drawing conclusions.
Use provider status information
Check the equipment's supported signal and service indicators if available. Follow installation guidance and do not reposition outdoor equipment unsafely. Report recurring time patterns to the provider rather than copying antenna adjustments from another system.
Compare normal busy periods
Test at the usual viewing time and include household traffic in the assessment. A quiet morning result may not represent evening use. Record sustained playback and connection consistency, not only the best short speed-test burst.
