Get a better range router and that should suffice for most homes in the area. If it is two floors, position the router close to the stairs. Should not be a problem, even with lower speeds. Have 10mbit and the router goes all through the house (2 floors and 160m2 and even reaches the whole yard of 2000m2) If you go to MediaMarkt they should be able to help with the best option router. Carrefour also have routers but less educated staff.

Despite all the comments to the contrary, I’d go with a Cat 5e/Cat 6 wired network every time.
Devices that extend your existing network either via a powerline adaptor or Wi-Fi repeater aren’t a patch on a prospered wired network.
I find that the reinforced concrete construction of most Spanish properties blocks Wi-Fi signals very effectively.
I have a dual band router, plus two dual band wireless access points - one on the solarium and one in the under-build - both connected via wired Ethernet connections. Both utilise Power over Ethernet (PoE) so that only a single Ethernet cable runs to each device and no additional power supply is needed.
I can’t reccomend an installer I’m afraid, but you could try TV Technology as a starting point.

Or even support your local businesses here in Quesada. See Paul at Quesada Computers behind Sabadell and Santander banks. Very helpful chap.

You could also approach your local Spanish specialist you will get a good service and probably a good price.

I can not give you an opinion until I see your house and where is the router. I am in Guardamar and sometimes arround Quesada. I will check for free and can give you some ideas. You can decide after.
