Soldering an external antenna on your esp8266 may solve your wifi problems.
If you can do your job on the esp without Wifi you can use an ethernet shield with a Wiznet W5500.

also check your Wi-Fi network with a diagnostic tool like INSSIDER. It's a free wifi scanner for Android/Windows so you can check the "black holes" in your Wi-Wifi network.
I tested wifi scanner with wifi analyzer on android phone. After I opened first topic.
