Answer 2

Take the NanoStation M2. Issue price ~ 5000r. You can look in the direction of Mikrotik SXT2, but it will be worse at such a distance and under the announced conditions. Stick it on a double-sided tape on the window, or put it on the windowsill.
I have a camping set of a similar antenna and a mikrotik hap mikro router. In hotels and holiday homes, Wi-Fi is often only in the reception area, not always in the room. I'm willing to pay for it - but I can't give. And I always need the Internet. I collect my bundle, cling to the reception and distribute it in the room to my devices. Happens from a neighboring hotel. There were cases when the distributing antennas were on default passwords, I went in and optimized the broadcast. As a thank you for the freebie. Well, it works better for me after that.

Please note that transmitting a signal from an access point is one problem, the second problem is for the laptop to shout to the access point in response. Those. you still need a directional antenna on the laptop, as Artem said .
