Explanation

A Wireless Access Point (WAP) is the correct device to extend Wi-Fi coverage in a building. It connects to the wired network infrastructure and broadcasts a wireless signal to clients in its range. Switches and hubs operate at the data link/physical layers and handle wired connections only. A router connects different networks together and typically is not used solely to extend wireless coverage.
