The TV may be using the 2.4Ghz band.this is what's weird...i have a 500mb connection with virgin..bravia core generally says just under 80 mbps..but when i did a speed test on the tv itself, it says i'm only receiving just under 50 mbps anytime i do the test.
Create a 5Ghz only band from the VM router and make the TV use that.
Also, No matter what equipment an isp gives you for WiFi... it won't be anywhere nearly as good, in terms of signal strength, compared to a standalone WiFi Router or Access Points.
The combined isp router/modems are bad. Yes, even the VM ones.
To get much better WiFi coverage & signal power, I would suggest putting the VM router in modem mode and connecting a much better WiFi router to it via one of its eth ports.
