There are many options here.
1. Move your router/modem to the centre of you house and run all computers wirelessly.
2. Route ethernet cables from your router (possibly outside) to your daughters rooms.
3. Route and ethernet cable to a point near their rooms and site a wireless access point there.
All three of these options are not expensive but do require some work on your part.
Imagine your router is radiating signal equally all around it and it is easy to see why it is best to be located centrally.

I thought that might be either the problem or part of the problem, which was why I mentioned the possibility of a new router with a directional antenna. However I don't want to waste good money on one if it won't actually make any difference. Any views?
