Apple airport express help?

I have a question about an Apple Airport Express A1392 MC414LL/A.

In my parents new house they have set up the internet to come into the office of their house (just built house) They had a hard time with internet getting past the office into the living room and the basement. After a bit I was able to find the range from their wireless router was horrible, so we went to best buy and got a Netgear R6250 router which is in the higher range of netgears routers. It seemed to fix the trouble and they could now get internet in the entire upstairs and some of the basement. We got a netgear extender for it to boost for the smart tv downstairs. It seemed to be working fine.

Midcontinent guy came to check tv and touched up the internet. Told my mom to get an apple router since he has seen those "cover entire blocks before".

Well she did and now with the airport apple it cuts in and out and has no where near the range the netgear had. Streaming music via a sonos speaker also cuts out several times in the garage. So my question is… Is the Apple Airport Express any good? Have very good range? Seems like crap to me.

We have…

Midcontinent cable modem, all windows 8 pcs, two ipads and iphones.
