      Also, can you explain what happened? What game showed up on your TV? Do you have a chromecast or a smart TV with chromecast built in?

        Good point. I assumed by the OP's tone that they are the type to rent a gateway. Either way, the second link gives more general guidelines how to log into your router.

    if his game showed up on your tv, it's probable that he has an open WiFi for some silly reason, and your tv connected to it. How do you know that he hacked your wife's email?

      Hehe. I think they meant Wi-Fi. It is a common auto correct error. See it all the time on Reddit where people post from phones.

        ...and why is the wife "very slow"?

        I also must be very slow because I don't see the common auto correct error.  What are people suppose to type?
