You must either have a very large place, very solid signal blocking walls, a crummy WiFi router, or some/all of the above.

We have a single Time Capsule fueling our whole two level, 2200 sf place with WiFi, and have full coverage. Two ATVs and two home offices with no problems.

But ultimately yes, a direct connection will beat WiFi.
