If the double socket in the photo is connected by two cables, then you can put the router in the living room. The cable from the ONT to the patch panel. In the living room, connect the router to the network socket. Connect LAN1 to the other port of the network socket. This allows LAN to be in the utility room and ready for distribution.

For fiber optics, it is. Of course, it is sufficient for all normal applications - including streaming with multiple users. Yep. And it is okay. Only apparently not when he moves away from the router (i.e., walls interfere). And that is probably more due to the location of the setup.

A refrigerator, large plants, a solid wall, mirror, etc. are enough, and from great reception it becomes nothing two meters away.

Either that or an access point. Plus an access point on the upper floor. The Fritzbox in the living room was not enough for me to reach the study. If you put the Fritzbox somewhere else, I would look for a point on the upper floor. Fritzbox in the house technology room = no Wi-Fi for the whole house. It’s strange, but true. But you can enjoy great movies in that room. You can save the 5 € for the 100mbit line, it won’t help you. You haven’t measured the Wi-Fi speed in the living room yet, have you? I would guess 2-3mbit :-)

What did you measure with? Please search with Google for a speed test on a website that also displays the ping and perform the test through the browser.

Completely logical: if your laptop/tablet can only access the internet via WLAN due to the lack of a LAN connection (simply because you haven’t plugged any in yet), then the LAN connection cannot be configured or measured either. And depending on how many devices are now competing for a WLAN access point as the “sole provider,” you shouldn’t be surprised by weak performance. It might also be disturbing that the WLAN components are constantly searching for each other. Or they haven’t even set WLAN as the standard/priority and are constantly trying to check if the LAN connection is back. And/or multiple devices are set to different frequency bands and cause the access point to switch constantly (which slows it down in terms of processing).
