Is there a way to make RBR850 satellite connect to closest access point?
3 of my 4 access points are wired. The 4th one (Shop) is closest to the "Upstairs" AP on the list below, however, it shows that it is connected to the router with poor signal (it's really far away). ...
NG has a wireless bridge:

Not very strong with the shop door shut, which is probably why it has worked so well for so long and I just didn't realize it was b/c of the door.
If I were to move the AP that I want it to mesh with, closer, so it only has to go through 1 sheet rock wall, metal, and 2 stone walls - would that help at all? The way it is set up now, there's 3 sheet rock walls, metal, and 2 stone walls.
The metal is the killer. Can you aim over or around the door?
