Week WiFi signal

My daughter lives at the back of the house and the WiFi signal is so weak that not even her WiFi booster helps. We may need a "super hub" or whatever it's called installed?

@Carrie123 no such thing as a superhub the power of all WiFi routers are strictly controlled by regulation. A lot depends on the positioning of the booster which requires a strong connection to the hub to operate.so needs to be no more than halfway between the hub and where the booster is required. The booster should be matched to the hub so for example a black Sky Brosdband hub needs a Sky booster SE210. 

There arre other technologies that can work where boisters dont. One worth looking into is a Powerline Networking kit where a pair of adaptersxsendctge date over the mains cables. These can be bbougt with a built-in WiFi access point.
