Issues with wifi signal strength

I have a sky hub and an extender which is plugged in halfway between the hub and downstairs tv.  The signal to the tv is weak with all live programmes freezing continually.  I have just plugged the extender in in the same room as the tv and that seems to have improved but upstairs where I work from as hardley any signal at all.  Advice on how to solve this if possible please.

@KevAttree the extender needs to be halfway between the hub and where you need the boost as you hsvectwo areas it sounds like you need a second extender. If younpsy for Sky's WiFi Max or Broadband Bosst bundles they should supply a second one if asked. However like many homes you maybe better off buying your own WiFi mesh system and use that instread of paying Sky. I do that  myself as my hime needs 3cwifi sources to give good coverage.

Ive ordered a TP-Link TL-PA9020PKIT 2-Port Gigabit Passthrough Powerline Starter Kit so will see what that does.
