Wireless network issue

    I cant seem to figure out how to solve this problem.

    In the diagram you can see the range of the wireless signals from both devices. if a person walks with lets say their iphone or laptop from room A to room B, the device can stay connected to the eircom router which now gives a very poor signal. the person has to manually connect to the access point in order to get proper internet speed. is there a way i could make the router and the access point the same network instead of the access point being a different network. I was messing around with a wireless range extender and that was ok but what would be really cool is a wired range extender. so in short is it possible to make the access point broadcast the same network?

    I hope this makes sense.

    Just give them the same name, password and other settings. On the lan side make sure only 1 is running dhcp.
