Tried posting this yesterday.

 

I have my TP Router in the living room and the TP Extender in the hallway. They have the same SSID.

 

If I connect in my living room and move to the back of the apartment, my PC will maintain a connection to the router, no matter how weak. If I turn off WiFi and turn it back on, it connects to the Extender.

 

Shouldn't it automatically join the strongest signal?

@Alonzo_Mosley 

Good day.

If your mobile clients supported roaming, they are supposed to automatically join the strongest signal.

So here are some suggestions:

  1. Check more than one device to see if all have the same problem;
  2. Change the SSID to be different to see if that made any difference;

By the way, what is the model number of your main router?

 

Thank you very much!
