You might end up spending less money with a cheaper router and an access point or a repeater

thats the setup right now but  it doesnt reach

Couldn't you just buy a longer cable from your access point to the router?

There's a maximum length, afaik. Not sure it's the same as the cat5e/cat6 max length (which is 100m, iirc). Speed decreases with cable length, although if you're using a quality cable it shouldn't be noticeable.

 

OT: is your repeater/AP outside? If not, you will probably want to move it outside, somewhere where it won't get wet. Kinda crappy to have it outside during the winter, though

that would mean that i either have to put my router outside or  my  repeater witch would break it when it rains

and to make it easier the small house only has 1 floor and the big house 2

if i get a better router then i could probably get the repeater to work in the small house

and reach it like that

Its best just to buy a longer cat5 or cat5e, as the cat5 decreases in speed when it reaches 100m and the cat5e descreases in speed when it reaches 150m.

 

Cat5 price  http://www.amazon.fr/R%C3%A9seau-Ethernet-CAT5e-Patch-Cordon/dp/B007U915WQ/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1438161796&sr=8-3&keywords=cat5

 

Cat5e price http://www.amazon.fr/CSL-Ethernet-compatible-brassage-verticaux/dp/B00J4GHM8E/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1438161842&sr=8-2&keywords=cat5e

 

and those prices are just a quick look on amazon, but if you shop around you will find better deals than those.

 

And your original budget of 60 Euros, could be dropped to 40 Euros

Why you still using a modem?

As your still using a modem, then its better to buy a cheap router at about 30 - 35 euros, then buy the cabling for the router to reach further. So overall you are looking probably about 60 - 70 euros, possibly lower.
