Unable to get Wifi signal in the bedroom

Question

Dear all,            Need help! I am under Starhub Fiber 200MPS plan. My TP, modem and router are in the Living Room. My bedroom is about 20 meters away and unable to receive any signal. I have tried to place a wifi repeater to no avail. My router is DLink DIR-865L. Thanks in advance.

Our contractor can help you with the installation. First point is $139.10 and subsequent point during the same visit is $107 each. Other charges will be quoted on site.

KaiBoon · Answer

Seem like there is obstruction. Have you tried moving the router to a more centralised location?

CalvinTay · Answer

Sadly the TP was installed in such a way with limited mobility. My place is longish by nature and the bedrooms are all the way to the back.

KaiBoon · Answer

If that's the case, maybe you would like to consider installing data point.When you are in your room, you are mainly using mobile devices?

KaiBoon · Answer

Yup. Using LAN Cable.

CalvinTay · Answer

Yes, we use mobile devices in the bedrooms... When you say data point, do you mean using cables to wire up the house?

CalvinTay · Answer

Who can do it? And costs? Have you any recommendation?

CalvinTay · Answer

Sure

CalvinTay · Answer

Will the contractors conceal the cables? Don't want it to be unsightly. You have a contact number or email? Let's take this offline.

We can carry on this convo via Private Message. Is it fine for you?

KaiBoon · Answer

I have received it. Let's continue from there.

The easiest way to get better wifi signal is really raise the router to a higher position... you can easily test the reception by getting someone to hold the router higher (1.5-2m) above the floor will be very good, then test reception where signal is weak. If it works, then see how you can have it raised permanently.

I had the same issues when I had my 865. Through some recommendations & thumbs up from users, I got it too. No regrets. But this is only for desktopshttp://www.asus.com/sg/Networking/PCEAC66/

I am interested in the cost to do structure cabling for my Starhub fibre. Can you please inform me what other costs to quote on site?
