I live on the 7th floor and my other apartment is on the 4th, basically i can choose to have my modem on either floor as both apartments are wired for service. I have a Netgear N600 router and a TP link WR841. I've installed DD-WRT on the TP link and used it as a client on the 7th floor while the modem and Netgear was on 4th. The TP link's speed was barely crawling at < 1mbps (I have a 25 mbps package) with frequent disconnection.
So, I am not looking to get the full 25 mbps with a prospective access point or any other hardware, I just need something that maintains a steady connection around 5-6 mbps.
I am a noob when it comes to networking and any suggestions about range extenders or pass-through power line stuff or any other equipment will be much appreciated.
