Virgin WiFi problem

My dad had a new Hub 3 last week and signed up to M350. He has an orange light on the router, which is located in the bedroom next to the PC. I ran a speed test on the PC and got 25MB! I connected via Ethernet and immediately got 360MB. However, in the lounge directly below the router, we can only get 20-30MB on the laptop and the TV. I have fitted a powerline and there is no difference. Any ideas?
Even if you are a minority of one, the truth is the truth.

Have you got a different device you can test the speed over wi-fi with, such as a smartphone.
Virgin hubs have pretty poor WiFi, but not usually that bad!
5GHz WiFi will generally give faster speeds if your adapter supports it.
