@bluesurf989 sounds like you need a WiFi extender which Sky can provide if you buy their WiFi Max package see https://www.sky.com/help/articles/sky-wifi-max

Re: Wifi dropping out in the kitchen

Most people have the router fitted either front or rear of the property.

Below is my floor plan. The router marked red is placed in the front bay window as its a mid terrace property. Using Wi-Fi at table in the rear extended kitchen is hopeless. It's about 40ft from the router with 1 solid wall and 2 glass doors. If I leave the doors open, then Wi-Fi is acceptable otherwise don't make any Teams calls.

 

Unforetunately you either need to spend your own cash on a simple mesh system or pay Sky extra every month for their "Sky Max" white router with boosters.
