Basically i am currently using two WiFi extenders, both on either side of the house however when im using the furthest away extender the WiFi is extremely poor. Is the only way to fix this to buy a better WiFi extender? or is there another solution? (the router cannot be moved from its current location)
 
Solution
The BEST answer is to run ethernet cables to the far ends and add WIFI access points (WAPs). WIFI extenders are a bad band aide for networking.
