Wifi not connecting to XR IPHONE
I have had the router installed since 2017 and haven't had much trouble but when my girls are home from college they complain that their Iphones will not work on wifi, shows connection but no service...

I'm Sorry but I have a NetGear N600 wifi Dual Band Router
Model number WNDR 3400
The N600 is in the middle of the ground level part of the house.
As far as the extenders I have the one on both ends of the house and then one upstairs.

And what extenders do you have?
I usually tell people to avoid multiple extenders. If you're needing more than 1 extender to cover a home, its better to move to an actual mesh system like netgear orbi or the nighthawk MK series. They're designed for multiple AP's.
Plus you're using a router that was manufactured 11 years ago and is a couple generations behind on technology. Its doesn't lead to great coverage/roaming/stability.
