Look at how the cables are run within your home. Look for any splitters that don't have cables plugged into them. Each splitter should have a cable and a device (i.e. set to box or modem) plugged in.
For example: The main cable from the box outside your home could be split into two, one cable goes to your modem. The second cable is then split again in your property, one cable goes to your set to box, and the second connection could either have no cable or a cable not connected to anything. Replace this splitter with a barrel connector, as the splitter reduces the signal strength.
If this doesn't apply, then an engineer would need complete a visit, and possibly increase the signal strength from the cabinet.
I hope this helps.
