It should seats the antenna firm, if it spins or loose the centre pin is not making good contact with its socket....In saying that it's not a good design.
Direct wire from PCB to Antenna and short would be ideal, but i use ethernet mainly
Also have you tried other channels on your router, 1 then 7 then 11 ?

My Mecool boxes won't connect properly if I use Channel 11 (Connects momentarily then cycles Off-Conn-Off-Conn .....)
Using Channel 7 works fine, though must get round to trying a big external aerial some time ...

Upgrade Wi-Fi Antenna
My brothers M8S Pro+ now connects via Wi-Fi where before it needed an Ethernet connection.
1x M8S Pro+
Soldering Iron & Solder
Cross head screwdriver
Wire cutters
Leatherman/Pliers
Craft knife
1x 6Db Wi-Fi Antenna (or better) - suitable Dual Band if your box has 2 bands.
1x SMA Pigtail (bare ends for MeCool or plug if you have a little socket on your MB)
Open the box (4x cross head screws behind the little rubber feet)
Click Larger
This is the solder connection (pads look like a socket should be fitted !!)
Click
Cut one slat on the right of the base, just behind, or in front of the middle (Wire cutters/Craft Knife)
Fit in the SMA socket (Leatherman/Pliers)
Solder to the pads, the same as the fitted antenna
- Core to Core Pad ... Screen to Screen Pad
Put back together
Needs two more feet than I have !
