What I plan to do is set up the bridge using my old Linksys Wireless N which will hopefully improve the range. If not, then buy and configure an extender / repeater device to place in another location closer to where I need the wireless connections. As noted before I am looking at an Asus dual band range extender.

As an interim step I discovered a "state of the art" wi-fi extender. Took a beer can (emptied it completely) as recommended and shaped a parabolic reflector and attached it to my current router antenna. Seriously, it increased the range about 40% and is consistent. Try it - amazed me that it was so simple, yet worked. Still planning on bridging the router, but this really affords me the time to do it at my convenience. mrintech.com youtube.com
