Gaming. Upload speed -ping

We have  Ultrafast Plus.  The PlayStation in the attic is suffering with low ping. We have a Sky wi fi booster on the first floor and also in the attic.  The hub is lin the living room. The only other devices using wifi are 2 mobile phones and 2 security cameras 

Cleared cache on PlayStation etc but still got bad ping

Hopping a link through two boosters is very likely to do horrible things to latency, so you need to try an engineer that out if the local topology: ethernet cable would be best, Powerline adapters may be better than now.

 

Also note that having a booster in the same location as a client device is typically unhelpful: they are designed to be midpoint relays.
