ONT box

Hi, I moved into a new apartment and got my sky wifi 2-3 months ago. My ONT box is downstairs and the rest of my apartment is upstairs (gaming PC, tv... etc) sitting downstairs next to my ONT box and router I get 150mbps but upstairs only 10, is there anything I can do to improve this??

The connection between ONT and Hub is an ethernet cable, so one option is to purchase a much longer one and run that upstairs.

 

In theory it's possible to use Powerline networking to make the same link, but that risks being a bottleneck itself.
