Do you mean you intentionally did this setup OR its a problem that some
systems cannot connect at a location?

to top floor and still connecting to the same SSID? If its the physical,
whats the signal strength like when they move and are they able to get ip
addresses at all? Do you possible have multiple radios with same SSIDs,
because if that is the case the client will try to connect with the
strongest SSID and if that particular radio does not have  connection back
to your network, ofcourse the clinet won't be able to connect
