Hi everyone. So I am in university accommodation and I haven’t had any problems with the internet here until now as I start to use 4k streaming on my Chromecast which I thought would be fine. Long story short I have a router/access point in my room and my pc is plugged into it using ethernet and gets around 200mb/s with my phone, laptop and chromecast getting 15-25mb/s. I used my PC hotspot and managed to get wifi on the devices up to 60mb/s and so I wonder if I could just plug a router into the wifi access point to get much better wifi in my room.

Get a hold of the cheapest wifi router you can, set it to AP mode (using your PC), and then try to connect to it with your wireless devices (with the default SSID) to see if you get an improvement. It may not even work with your pc, if Just-a-waffle_ is correct.
Room router/AP ==> your wifi router in AP mode ==> your pc.
