Extending wifi (self.networking)

We have a wireless camera connected to our wifi, but the concrete wall makes the signal inconsistent. There is an available POE port nearby indoors, and the existing wifi which has a good signal indoors.

What would be the most convenient solution to fix our issue? Should we just get a standard AP/repeater and put it close to the wall, or is there a better option?

Thanks

AP yes, repeater no. Repeaters suck.

Is the camera outdoors? Ideally you'd get an outdoors AP and put it outside.
