You need to add wireless range boosters into the access point. Multiple points at the same place will all have the same radius regardless of how many there are

Each wireless access point has a radius of 16 blocks. This can be increased to 32 with range boosters.

If you have a large base, you should make sure your wireless access points are spaced out with a tiny bit of overlap to reduce the possibility of signal blackspots.

Much like wireless topographies in real life.

Depends on what you're playing on. I've got my access point up to 80 blocks range in 1.7

depends on the config actually

access is based on the distance to the accesspoints which has enough range, if there isn't one near with the required range you don't get access

It's like WiFi. You can have several routers throughout the place, but if you leave those routers, no more Internet for you.

Actually, there's been this theory. What if we could run things like Fiberglass cables under roads, and set up a WiFi network? So we could all have WiFi while on the road? The same concept could be applied to these Wireless thingies, having several stationed at intervals beneath roads, so you always have access to your items.
