YMMV of course and in some cases a single router may not provide the range or the speed that you desire. If you're in one of those cases then sure, spend the time and money to build a complex network and accept the maintenance cost that comes along with it.

*IF* the OP's issue has to do with the wifi strength at his computer then more hardware might be necessary. However, if his PC is negotiating 1.2G and his phone is downloading at 1G then the wifi just might not be the problem.
I was having signal issues with the precast concrete walls in my home so I put one AP on the lanai, one in the house and one in the garage. I have flawless coverage everywhere around my house now.
