How to debug bad WiFi range (feddit.de)

I use OpenWrt on x86. I use this build but added a WiFi card and antennas. At first the WiFi performance was very good giving me great speeds and range. Some time ago performance degraded. The signal range is extremely limited giving me disconnects on my phone when I'm 4 meters away.

How could I debug what the cause might be. Any ideas?

Thanks! The chip I'm using is Qualcomm Atheros QCA9880 802.11acbgn.
