I agree with ahallasir's assessment. I always have 3-bars and only on 4G LTE. Nonetheless, I can watch two TVs simultaneously and still be able to use the Internet on my MacBook Pro. Forget the numbers and concentrate on performance.
As for an extender, I use a Netgear EX2700 extender for one area of my home that has trouble with WiFi reception. It works perfectly and definitely solved my coverage problem. For the price, you can't beat it! Just one word of caution: Netgear would prefer you to use WPS to program the extender, but unfortunately there is no WPS on the T-Mobile gateway. That means you'll need to use a web interface to program the extender. The instructions are pretty clear on how to do this, but you might want to review the manual before you pull the trigger.
¡Buena suerte!
