So my friend has really issues with her connection she's loosing it often during the day so we made a Wifi Analysis with an App in Windows 10.

Looks like there are too many Networks on top of each other! Right?

She should move the channel to 11?

And we also brought a Wireless Reparter because in the Same room as the Wireless Router she has much better performance. -30dB!

Especially Issues with online Gaming she always looses Connection but Rocket League says she has a relatively good ping also we did Pingtest and it looked fine.

Yes, move to channel 11. What router do you have? Gaming on wireless stinks IMO and gaming on a wireless repeater is even worse. Can you run ethernet to the gaming room? Would be cheaper and better then buying a repeater, just a bit more work.

 

FYI. You can take screen shots by either using snippet or CTRL + Print Screen then paste into MSPaint. Save then drag and drop into the post.

START + Print Screen takes screenshots in windows 10 and saves it automatically.

You will have to pry my Window 7 64bit from my cold dead hands. ;) But thanks for the tip. Does it save the whole display or just the window in focus? I know Alt +Print Screen just screenshot the window.

Definitely change channels. You are dealing with a lot of noise. You can have a good signal. But if there is too much noise it's useless.

If you cant run a cat5 cable to the PC. I would look into one of those ethernet over powerline adaptors. 

Friend of mine uses one for gaming and it does fairly well.
