No wifi on the third floor

I just purchased a nighthawk r7000. My modem is currently located in the basement and the router is there too. I cannot bring it up to the main floor without re-wiring. What are my options to get wifi on the third floor? I don't even get a week signal up there.

    You could try power line adapters. You'll never have decent thoughput.

  • Your router should sitting on the third floor or one floor down from there. If you can't relocate router, seek another means with

    AP or repeater.
