Ok i bought a TP AC 1759 WiFi Range Extender and I really like it.

But I swear it creates a dead spot when I walk by it talking on my cell phone,happened 3 times today. Does that make any sense?

If you are just using cell signal then I think it may be something else.

 

If you were doing Wi-Fi calling I could see the phone jumping from the router to the extender which will cause a drop in connection.

 

However, just the radio being able to influence a cell phones signal, I do not believe so.
