wifi comes and goes and prompts for password often
#3
You don't have assign a new SSID to every access point. The phone can handle them as separate access points itself.

Go to settings -> Wifi -> (the settings-icon next to your wifi) -> Details -> Access Point and assign it to only one access point. With six access points you will probably have to write down the BSSIDs you assign.
After that you should see a "new" Wifi with the same SSID in you Wifi settings. Connect to the new Wifi and assign it to a specific access point. It should now be called "Your ESSID 1".
Repeat for all of your access points.

I only have two access points, but it seems to be working quite well. I haven't had any issues with it not handing over to the best available access point.
