How to make WiFi work throughout the house?
Good afternoon!
The following problem arose:
There is a private house, in the corner of which there is a cable from the Internet. It is connected to TP-Link TL-WR741ND(RU) Ver: 4.25 router, single antenna router. This router provides a wired Internet connection to a desktop PC and distributes a WiFi network for other devices within 4 rooms, where people spend most of their time with phones or laptops. Within these limits, the network suits. Outside of these rooms, there are 4 more rooms, inside which the WiFi network becomes weaker or disappears altogether. How to solve this moment and make it so that the network is strong enough everywhere, and, conditionally, in the farthest room you can talk from a phone connected to the WiFi network through a call in a telegram?
The equipment with a router and a computer is located in one corner of the house, respectively, in the other, opposite corner of the house, there is no WiFi network anymore.
There is no possibility to transfer the router and will not.
Throwing a cable from the Internet to another place in the house is also not possible.
Putting any equipment in different places of the house and pulling wires back and forth is also not possible and will not be. There is a QSS
button on the router (I read the information in the admin panel of the router, I didn’t understand what exactly it does, I only understood that the infa was not written for a simple user).
It is possible to buy another router, or buy a Wi-FI amplifier.
How to set up the network in such a way that WiFi can reach and work throughout the house?
Is it possible to make one router receive the Internet signal from another router and distribute it further, and at the same time be connected only to the outlet?
Thanks in advance for any helpful information in solving this problem. Thank you!

The question is asked with enviable regularity, but the answer remains unchanged. Without stretching the cable and without installing the second point, nothing workable can be assembled.
By increasing the WiFi signal, you will get a weakening of the reception.
You can try using powerline adapters, but I have never used them myself and I can not say how effective they will be, especially in a tanning house. There are adapter models with built-in wifi https://lantorg.com/article/zachem-nuzhny-powerlin...
I had a similar task. only I started to solve it at the construction stage.
if you want to do it well, it will be something like this:
everything that can be connected with a wire must be connected with a wire, we put sockets everywhere as much as possible;
a wired router is installed at the provider's point of presence, no WiFi is needed there;
for wifi, we take an access point and plan in advance for it a place with maximum coverage of the premises and put sockets there to connect it;
if we consider that one AP is not enough, we plan how much is needed, taking into account the client capacity.
that's all. everything else is unnecessary gimor itself.
but if you find yourself a hole on the billiard table and fall into it - you can still look at the powerline devices.
Change the router to Mikrotik 951 series in WiFi. Pay 1x for its normal setup. That
's it Well, or buy a wifi repeater \ repeater \ amplifier .... but taking into account your shit router (don't be offended, this is the simplest cheap router, respectively, and its performance and wifi are at the appropriate level) I don’t think that there will be an acceptable speed when using a repeater
QSS button allows you to connect a device without entering a password from the WiFi on it. Select a network, click connect, when you ask for a password 0 click on the QSS router - the device will automatically substitute the "password" and connect
Take Ubiquiti's AmpliFi kit, it's not cheap, router plus repeater is about 20k, but the simplest solution and almost perfect working solution.
Well, or take wifi signal repeaters, you can use the same tp-link, it will be much cheaper.
I advise you to buy Two Kinetics. As an option Viva and Air. Connect them into a seamless network. There is a video on youtube. Control from your smartphone, best support, great reviews, inexpensive.
Your router is cheap, so the repeater is also inexpensive - https://www.tp-link.com/ru/home-networking/range-e...
Good afternoon.
For such a task, the UNIFI DREAM MACHINE Router and UNIFI AC LR or UNIFI AC M (Mesh) access points are suitable .
