If I were trying to serve 3 floors with it, I'd do one of two things:

1) Get a wireless router and put it on the middle floor or
2) still get a router for the first floor and try its range out then, if I need to extend the network to reach the third floor, purchase a second router to do so.

Hope this helps.

You can extend your network, relatively cheaply, with Airport Express.
