I shouldn't have problem since i only have a dell portable. I think the trick is to have the same ssid on both.
^^ that is how you set it up.. same SSID and security settings

Do i have to run a wire where i want to put the DAP-1360? I heared access point need wire from router, is that true? Would it be possible to catch the wifi then boost it without wire.
^^ it's a wireless range extender that doubles as an access point (you can change modes). For superior coverage you would run a wire to the 1360 and use it as an additional access point. Because it's a wireless range extender you can extend your wireless coverage _wirelessly_.

How much farther can this bring the signal strengh? Approximaly?
^^ The answer to that question can only be answered in your environment. Wireless varies so wildly i will not even be bothered to guess dude. But it will extend your wireless coverage.
