It's the same principle of al satellite dish and it works, but I'm 86% sure that mirrors won't affect wifi, so we're still not at 100% but getting there.

Depends on what frequency your "mirror" mirrors.

A traditional one reflects higher frequency of electromagnetic rays (visible light) than what you need for wifi (in the microwave frequencies)

If it's a silver layer on a glass/plastic pane (like basically any mirror) and it's big enough (more than idk, let's say 20 cm to be safe) why wouldn't it mirror the lower frequencies too?

Oh yeah probably but it might absorb some or even more thant it reflects
