My 1920s house is L-shaped and because of its geometry the Wifi signal

The signal is effectively non-existent in the study so I used an old
router to extend the signal. Still no joy unless I put the extender in
the study.

I'm forming the opinion that a metal foil moisture barrier is blocking
the signal though I have no evidence that there is one. The rest of the
house is fine.

Is this likely?

Yes. I have exactly the same problem.

Any suggestions?

Wired ethernet.
