Speed upgrade corrupted new modem and destroyed a good WiFi network

Has anyone had an issue where an unnecessary speed bump destroyed an entire WiFi network and now has corrupted a supposedly brand new modem? I have a BBB case going on  in the middle of this because they caused this.

Their random dinking around for no reason where I only had good internet for a month. The supposedly helpful speed bump is the direct opposite and now my modem won’t connect.

All day today no internet and nothing helps. I thought I’d see if this has happened to anyone else as the new modem the tech just installed in June and they messed stuff up a month later with a ridiculous speed upgrade that made it slow again.

Now, my modem is a nightmare, can’t connect and I had to get a new credit card because the speed upgrade ruined my new service. Nightmare to say the least.
