@Star1977 You can but it won't solve your issue, if anything it will make it work. 

 

If you have already tried powerline with no success then the only option is to run an ethernet cable, somehow, someway.

Yes its called a wifi-ethernet bridge but you'll get lag between the booster and hub that could be worse than the powerlines
