Connecting Bluesound Node 2i to remote stereo system over WIFI -

dumb question - I have my Node 2i set up on my Livingroom stereo - direct rca interconnect connection.  I want to connect it also to a system I have downstairs. I have it set up now via bluetooth - which works, but drops out and is buggy.
   Is there a simple and low cost wifi attach devise that I can use in place of blutooth that I don't have to constantly restore the connection to?

thanks in advance!

Just buy a $25 repeater. WiFi in, ethernet to 2i.
They suck with a phone because it's another SSID but with ethernet you only log in once.
Or do WiFi right and get a nice system.

If you have the newer Node model, it has 5ghz network capability.
Try setting it to that and see if the drop outs stop.
