Duplicate wifi access point

Hi

I have a ring camera which connects to a wifi access point. If I created a second access point with the same ssid and password, would the camera connect to the stronger one? Also, if the access point that it is connected to goes down, will it connect to the other one? And if the other one came back on and it is stronger, would it switch over?

My camera is in a remote location and I’m trying to get it more reliable for when there is load shedding etc. The camera itself is immune because it is powered by a solar panel.

Thanks in advance

Hi @049derek. Which model of Camera do you have? When you say two different access points, are you referring to two different modems and routers? Or do you mean a router and a wifi extender?
