I'm seeking a better wireless connection instead of the router provided by the ISP. The current setup has weak signals and frequent drops, likely because of the standard box's poor antenna. I'm unsure what to choose or the budget, but I need a strong signal without relying on wires.

Does your device include an external antenna? A directional one might help. I can use wireless signals that pass through walls, but I still favor a wired connection.

What ISP and signal type are you asking about? A separate modem and router often work best.

Antenna Virgin Ireland - I'm not sure what model it is, seems like a custom design.

Is there internet access via Coax? Does your provider offer a list of approved modems?

I discovered they don’t permit modems, but I can obtain a router instead.

It looks like you're referring to a setup where you only need an access point rather than a complete router. For larger homes, having several might be beneficial.
