Assuming a good reed, an appropriate mouthpiece, and good technique, altissimo F# should be relatively easy to play on any clarinet unless it is out of adjustment.
Upgrading the clarinet will not help if the problem is with your mouthpiece, reed, or technique.
I would recommend starting by having an experienced player or a clarinet teacher try out the instrument to verify it is in proper condition. If not, it may be time for a trip into the shop for maintenance.
If the clarinet is in good shape, get an experienced teacher to check out your technique and evaluate your mouthpiece/reed combo.
