Boosters

We live in an old terraced house. We have 2 boosters. One in the kitchen and one in the attic. The hub is in the living room. 

Would another booster help the signal to the attic. If it was placed on the first floor ? 

The booster in the kitchen shows a good signal but the one in the attic shows a poor signal.

@elderwandninja a third booster might but daisy chaining boosters is not ideal as the speed of the wifi halves with each jump. A better so,ution is to improve connectivity to the booster in the attic. As running an ethernet cable from the hub to that booster is impractical a goodsecond best is to consider buying a powerline networking kit with 2 adapters thst communicate usingbthe mains wiring. These units plug into wall sockets and are linked to the hub and tge upstairs booster by short ethernet cables.
