    That should work fine, have you tried moving the wifi router you have to see if this is so?

    Other option is a powerline adaptor, sends ethernet signal thru the power lines in your house, need two adaptors to make it work, kits can be got for about €100 for an 85Mbs version.

    Just another option

    Another option is to use a AP device which picks up the original signal and re-sends it on the same channel. Basicly just a wireless extender. I get mine from abroad. €47 + vat and carriage .
