I have a TPlink box that can be an "extender" or an"access point."

Access point requires a cat wire from the router but it's much better and shares the same network name as the original.

If you set it up as "extender" it only templates the crappy WiFi it receives, which is usually slow, and has "EXT" on the end of the network name.

As an access point it'll do about 900mbps in both directions.
