Do I have to buy a new router?
If you want to improve the coverage, it’s not necessary because the output power of Wi-Fi devices is normalized by regulation. Further the Wi-Fi propagation at 2,4GHz or 5 GHz only depends on your house architecture.
But if you want to improve the performance and connectivity, you should by a new one. New routers have a faster and stronger processor, which can manage more Wi-Fi devices at the same time. Make sure that it is an 802.11ac Router dual band for a better performance.

Do I have to add a repeater?
The basic usage of a repeater is to improve the coverage. If you want to enhance the performance and connectivity, it’s not needed. With a repeater you divide the bandwidth by 2 because the repeater must connect to the modem/router on one side and to client devices on the other side. Moreover, all your Wi-Fi devices share the available Wi-Fi bandwidth of your modem/router through the Wi-Fi repeater.
