Unexpected Wifi sharing with Landlord and family

I am feeling guilty and greedy for changing the password on my wifi and removing all the devices. Am I wrong?

I currently rent a room within a family household. When I moved in, they allowed me to use their wifi, their wifi turned out to be super slow for my gaming, and school needs so I asked my landlord if I could get my own wifi service since theirs was to slow. He agreed. I got a 400 mbps plan and have been enjoying great speeds since then. A month ago I went on a month long vacation and around the middle of it I got a message from the wife saying that there had been a power outage for a few days and that they had no wifi access so she asked if they could use mine. I said sure and gave her my password due to their situation. When I got back yesterday, I noticed they were still connected to my wifi, and they had also connected every household device of theirs to my wifi (about 7 devices) to include their of age son’s PS5.

I feel bummed out about removing them from my wifi, I know 400 mbps is a lot for myself. What ticks me off a little bit is the son is near my age, works too and was piggybacking off my wifi. Am I wrong?

They are super nice people and I know their intentions weren’t bad, I just wish when I got back they had told me they were still connected or told me they would like to go half and half on the bill. Should I apologize to them?
