Maximise WiFi coverage- using X10 Router and a EX8000 extender

Using X10 R9000 Router and a EX8000 extender.

The WiFi from the Router and the Extender do not cover all, still an area which has little signal. What is the best way to further extend the WiFi cover, eg. Another extender - how might this be connected -or use a wired Ethernet cable ? Appreciate ideas.

You can daisy-chain another mesh extender through the EX8000, but you'll get better performance if you connect the new extender to the router (or possibly the EX8000) over ethernet.  So if that's practical, then that's the best approach.
