Do you see your WIFI network name ?
Any other Network secured unsecured?

yes my wifi connection shows with an excellent signal.the repair massage is just that my signal is not strong enought. i must give you a precision. i am French and my computer was bought in france so i have to translate everything as well as i can ... so it's not always obvious. sorry for this extra difficulty !
i runned cmd, but what next ?

@gozoflo

Reset you router with the help of the reset button at the bottom of your router press it for 2 to 3 seconds until the LED's start going off, then configure your router and check whether your Wi-Fi problem is solved or not.

Refer: Modem configuration: WA 3002 G4

Please check the speed on LAN connection/WLAN connection same server..
Start Network WLAN
Properties
Wireless settings page opens
Check TCP/IP
properties
IN DNS
add
208.67.220.220
208.67.222.222
Apply SAVE.
Retest speed again. Do not expect dramatic increase.
Target 512/8 = 64 KB/sec Maximum.
( Practical speed 30 to 50 KB/sec)

Airtel
or speedtest.net.

In your computer only some tweaks can be made.
Try TCP/IP optimizer
from Speedguide.net.

For ref : Not to be done now.
Reset switch : ( or in bottom small round hole near right leg)
