That was my original set up but most of my devices are close to where my router is now and work a lot better now being closer to the router (could be because of the same issue).

Try installing the 1.0.0.210 firmware to the extender. I hadn't seen many issues on the forums with that version. Maybe the one you're on has unknown issues.
- Timothyah2Oct 05, 2022GuideHow do you do that? Thank you so much for all your help!

download it from the support site and then extract it.
then log into the extenders browser and go to firmware update.
Follow the firmware update process but use the older firmware.
