Images are very slow loading on my Phone when its connected to Nighthawk x4 Wifi range extender.

Hello. I purchased a  Nighthawk x4 EX7300 Wifi range extender so that my Galaxy Note8 could receive WiFi in my garage and back yard. It works perfectly. Strong WiFi outside the house. But when in the house, certain sites, including images buffer, and load exremely slow. I am not that tech savy, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Where is the extender located? you may want to switch back to your routers network when you are inside if the extender is closer to the outside and the garage.

      The extender is located very close to the garage,and when i return to the house my phone automatically switchs back to my routers network, but again, since installing, very slow loading pages, and buffering. Frustrated.
