WAC104 repeater

Hi I have a NetGear WAC104 acting as a WAP.  It is connected to a router which does NOT have wi-fi.  My wireless networking is provided via the WAC104 connected to the router via a CAT V cable.  I have having intermittent connectivity issues with a Blink camera.  Blink cameras must connect to the same wifi network as the Sync module.  So I need to ensure I am using the same SSID.  I have done some research and it appears there are many wifi extenders available but they all connect to the router.  I am looking for something that will repeat the wi-fi signal from my WAP without changing the SSID.  Any suggestions ?

Most users only operate one network on one IP subnet. No mater what SSIDs are configured, no matter if these are 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, or even 6 GHz ..., no matter how many wireless access points you operate, no matter how many Wi-Fi repeaters you operate: It remains same network then..

Yes I have a single IP subnet (192.168.2.0/24).  I am looking for recommendations to boost a 2.4Ghz WiFi network using a Netgear WAC104 WAP.
