The Virgin engineer plugged in some unit or other (I'm not technically minded !) next to the computer in the upstairs bedroom and plugged an ethernet cable into it. I'm not sure if it's a WiFi Booster but at least we can get a signal now. Rather than run more cables through the house we probably will get a wireless WiFi Booster if we find the coverage becomes unacceptable but thanks for your suggestion anyway.
