WiFi extenders ...

Having a look at this for someone. Old house nearly over 100yrs old, brown old timber that can be hard to pentrate thru with wireless. Looking at adding a unit upstairs while running a network cable. Those are better I heard than wireless to wireless.

1. This RJ45 port. Is it for incoming data from the router? Or can you use it for outgoing - ie the unit connects wireless to the router and someone can plug their laptop into the RJ45 port.

2. We are looking for an economic N300 one, any reason to go with a AC version? They pretty much just use it to surf the web, watch videos etc and use chat apps.

3. Do extenders use the same SSID or create a new one?

Looking at placing the device right outside the 4 bedroom doors in the corridor. If that does not cut then nothing I will I guess unless you put it each of the bedrooms.

Thanks.
