My phone connects without Internet when connecting through my router extension, it works OK when connecting directly from the router. All my other devices work fine connecting through the extension. I would be grateful for any feedback.

hello

 

-try forgetting the connections then connecting again

Settings → Connections → Wi-Fi → tap and hold the Extention SSID → tap forget

 

-turn off and on the phone

-try connecting again

Aaah Can you edit the SSID? It has to be identical.

If it has a different name it becomes a separate access point. Have you paired directly with the router ? I'm not too sure if your issue that your phone is not switching from the router to the extender. Can you clarify?

I can connect direct with the router no problem, its only connecting through extension / booster.
