What actual skyq router is it?
If you used wps to setup the extender, its default setup uses the mesh function. that's where the ssid for the extender is the same as the ssid for the router. In that mode, the device itself (phone, tablet, etc) is what roams between the router/extender.
Some devices you can change the roaming aggressiveness. You can try manipulating this a bit.
