I've got the same problem in my house. Our WiFi router
is far enough away from my radio room that the signal is
marginal to sort of good. I actually have a second NetGear
router that I should be able to convert to an access point as
there is Ethernet cable available. I thought I had it once but
it looks like I don't have all the routing functions shut off.
When I would turn it on, it would work great guns at
first and then my wife would tell me that when she tried to do
stuff on her iPhone, she kept getting stuck in never-never land.
I could turn off the access point and voila, everything was good
again. The AP was trying to route packets to who knows where and
so right now, it is just sitting there waiting for me to do
something.
Now that I am retired, maybe I'll have time to get it
working as an AP for sure.
