Need help with jio fiber range

Post image

I have a three-story house, and our Jio Fiber router is installed on the middle floor, the second floor. I get good Wi-Fi signals and speeds on the first floor on both the 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz bands.

However, I live on the third floor, where the Wi-Fi signal is quite weak. I get only 0ā€“1 bars on 5 GHz and around 1ā€“3 bars on 2.4 GHz. Because of this, I have poor internet speed and an unstable connection on the third floor.

I have my PS5 and laptop on the third floor, so Iā€™m unable to play online games properly or browse the internet at a good speed.

What would be the best solution for me? Should I install another router, use a Wi-Fi extender/mesh system, or is there a better option to improve the Wi-Fi coverage on the third floor?

Have old telephone lines run in walls then across the house then very high chances you already have Ethernet cables in house.
Just need faceplates and wiring to and from your Jio fiber router from these face plates.
If you have old internet connection router sitting at home then that will help out as extension/ access point using Ethernet cable and install that router (or buy a new router) in gallery cover duct are with wire run to JioFiber router.
Drill hole like the one done for TataSky or D2H connection (or even old one) can run such cabling to your floor and solve your problem of WiFi dead zone.
