Re: Wifi issues
You absolutely aren't guaranteed 700Mbs over WiFi: the 'Enhanced Wall to Wall WiFi Guarantee' (if paying the supplement for WiFi Max) is for a whole 25Mbs.
Sky loans wireless booster hardware free under the terms of the 'WiFi Guarantee' element of 'Broadband Boost' and the 'Enhanced Wall to Wall WiFi Guarantee' part of the 'WiFi Max' subscription supplement: they don't otherwise provide or sell them except to resolve issues with Sky Q. Phoning Sky to go through a telephone diagnosis is required to have a booster or pod allocated to the account. Inevitably some have leaked onto a certain auction site, but Sky won't offer support with using these.
Confusingly the 'Wall to Wall WiFi Guarantee' doesn't actually provide booster hardware, and is essentially a sales lead generator for the supplements mentioned above.

Re: Wifi issues
I'd also suggest that expecting ISP hardware (which is inevitably built to a limited budget) to cover a 'huge' house for anything like gigabit speeds is frankly unrealistic.
Note that Glass is a subscription television product, and not itself broadband or WiFi.
