hello there i have google fiber and i have a gfrg110 network box it has built in 2.4ghz WiFi and 5ghz WiFi, i have a MSI GE62-apache gaming laptop which has built in intel dual band wireless ac3160 WiFi so i can use the 5ghz band, my laptop is downstairs in the finished basement and sometimes i experience lag with playing games, or i see a high ping this is not all the time just sometimes. my desktop gets a download speed of about 918 Mbps and my laptop gets about 80Mbps, My current setup is as follows i have a hard lined ethernet cable plugged into the network box running into the basement plugged up to a TP-Link gig switch, i have my desktop computer and my smart tv plugged into the switch also, can i plug in a wifi repeater or something to the switch to extend the 5ghz wifi signal so that its like my laptop is in the same room as my network box or do i need a router or something else to get what i desire or am i just being unreasonable??
