WiFi not working in bedroom

Hi there, my whole is about 900sq collectively. But for the past 6 months the WiFi does not work from my room. It doesn't make sense when I pay £27 a month and my apartment is so small. I've trouvleshooted everything and everything is working. I've tried moving the box but the internet socket is only in my living room. I don't understand?

@Nb77 thecsize of your home is not thst important what controls wifi strength is the number of walls etc thecsignal has to pass through and what they are built out of. Partition walls are no problem but brick or worse concrete or stone are going to block a lot of signal and any metal will totally block it. Makee sure the hub is out in the open off the floor so things like radiators are not part of the problem you can easily buyba longer cablevto link the hub to the incoming supply if required..

 

While WiFi extenders are a possibility you may find a powerline networking kit that uses the mains cabelling to carry the data can be a better solution in problem buildings.
