You should at least run wpa_supplicant, which will pick a better network
and reconnect if the connection drops etc. Almost no device does that by
itself any more.

 wpa_supplicant is running.

#ps ax | grep wpa

wpa_supplicant -iwlan0 -c/var/run/wpa_supplicant-wlan0.conf -Dnl80211,wext -P/var/run/wpa_supplicant/wlan0.pid -B


When the router in the middle of the house is chosen, as opposed to the range extender in the very same room, the network works for a time but eventually disassociates, usually reason 7, and never reconnects to anything.
