Yes, you need to actually buy a splitter rather than a coupler which is what you are buying at the moment, splitters split the signal evenly, couplers don't.
You'll lose about 4dB on each split, 3dB for halving the signal plus about another dB for insertion loss on the splitter.
Yes a router will resolve this.
No comment at all on the original installer.
