It will make difference in speed if you connect wireless router near wireless access point. However, the location of the router/AP will. Cable connected from router to the access point in an optimal, high central location will increase speed.

A router is nothing but server which can perform multiple operation at one time, A router directs data and commands coming from different places in the network towards their destinations. A wireless access point (WAP or AP) is a device that allows wireless communication devices to connect to a wireless network using Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or related standards.
