OpenWRT has a ready manual .
PS It shows a wired connection on one side, but you can also raise it as an access point, it doesn't matter, but the ability to simultaneously use a wireless client connection and be an access point is determined by the WiFi adapter chipset and driver. If there is such an opportunity, then this is done in LUCI with the "Add" button in the Wifi settings, and the appropriate mode is added (client or access point).
