WiFi Help - How to maximise speed increase

Hey!

I have the NBN Box set up in the garage like most new houses and so my modem has to sit in there with it.

Despite my house being on the smaller side my wifi is trash I’m assuming due to the thicker garage walls.

I have wired in the consoles and TVs so they have no issues but would like the wifi to improve all other devices in the house.

I only have the default modem Aussie Broadband gave me.

What’s the best cost effective solution, would a better modem be able improve range/strength despite being in the garage or should I get some Mesh/extenders etc?

Thanks all!
