Default 2 opposite parabolic reflectors in a single directional WIFI antenna?

Hello. Is it possible to put two opposite parabolic reflectors in a single
directional antenna of an WiFi Access Point (A.P.-A)?
In fact, the Access Point (A.P.-A) has two antennas, but it needs to send
its signal very far, so it is not appropriate to put a directional parabolic
reflector of aluminum foil on each individual antenna oriented each in the
opposite direction.
Curiously, the signal from A.P.-A comes very well to another Access Point
(A.P.-B) that is very far (and that has a directional parabolic reflector of
aluminum foil), but the signal ot this A.P.-A comes very badly to the
laptops that are near (near to this A.P.-A).
Is it possible to put two parabolic reflectors of aluminum foil in the
opposite direction in each antenna of the Access Point (AP-A)? I am
referring to a parabolic reflector of aluminum foil oriented to P.A.-B and
another parabolic reflector oriented to laptops, this (2 reflectors) in each
2 antennaS. Will operate? Is there another better and equally simple
solution?
Sincerely, JM
