I have jio fiber modem/router installed in 1 room, the signal is weak in one of the far away room. I have installwd a LAN cable between the two rooms. Please suggest a wifi extender that will be used just to provide signal in that room. Looking for some affordable options.

Will this work?
D-Link DIR-615 Wi-fi Ethernet-N300 Single_band 300Mbps Router, Mobile App Support, Router | AP | Repeater | Client Modes(Black) costs 800.

Donot buy 300Mbps one if you are using 5GHz network. You will not get optimal speed.

I am using this one for my parents, cheaper and works flawlessly. MERCUSYS AC1200 Dual Band Wi-Fi Range Extender

In my second home, I am sometime use an old TPlink router in bridge mode.

Gear up ...
A cheap 2nd router will surely be a good cheap option as you have LAN wire in 2nd room, but you will have 2 different wifi connections under same roof.
