Hi all,
I hope to seek some advice on my current situation. I am staying in a 5 rooms HDB flat and is using Starhub cable (100 mbps); so far comfortable with the speed. I am using Asus N56U router and it is placed in my study room (marked x in the diagram) while the modem is in the living room (marked circle). The router is connected from the Modem via ethernet cable that is pulled from the living room. Reason for putting my router in study room is i am connecting my PC and NAS using ethernet. There are 2 issues so far:
I have another Asus N56U router which was given by a friend. I was able to access the setup screen via (192.168.1.2), but as I was trying to configure between AP and AP Client setup (Padavan firmware), i was not able to access the setup page anymore (even after hard reset).
Will like to have some inputs on what should I do to improve the wifi connectivity in Bedroom 2? Should i get a new router (am thinking of Asus AC86U) and whether should i change the router location to be in the living room, near the marked circle)? Thanks all in advance!

There are 2 issues so far:
- Bedroom 2 has very weak wifi signal, even if connected it is very slow; but Main Bedroom wifi connectivity seems okay and speed is quite decent.
- I think starting these few weeks, the wifi has been unstable even when i am in my living room or study room.
