Currently, the router is installed at the living room and there is no problem for the rooms near to the living room, however, there is no wifi detected at the study room which is about 20m from the living room. According to the installer, I need to get a good quality router so I can receive the wifi at my study room. Please advise what brand and which model of router should I buy?

20 meter is pretty far . You can either get a better router or a better wifi receiver for ur laptop/desktop .

Range is determined by Dbi . The higher Dbi the further it can project the signal . So just look out for this in the spec sheet

You can also consider to relocate your router to a more suitable position , preferable high up with less obstruction to your device .

You could install an AP like ubiquiti uap ac lite & power it with a 20m copper eth cable run. Otherwise buy wifi mesh to wifi the whole house with less wiring.
