Even my 5g barely gets 2 bars on a good day. The only wifi (router located in the basement) rarely connects for long. Helppp
You can either get a 4G / 5G outdoor antenna or change your mobile provider hoping it’s better than the old one.
Otherwise, there isn’t much you can do.

Most mobile phone provider offer “Wi-Fi Calling” meaning your phone will use wifi to call & send SMS. Check your phone & turn on that option.
Move home or work around the signal limitations.
For android, I use an app called Connection Stabilizer Booster which helps to some extent using some tricks and optimizations, no magic though. Worth a try!
Only real solution is installing a cell network booster with External antenna for cell connectivity, and adding additional access points for wifi.
