Wi-Fi connection with FiOS

[bkdodger2]

Good day folks, I want to run this by you guys and gals. So I have a Verizon FiOS router upstairs and I'm in the lower level basement apartment. I bought a FiOS extender to go with it. My signal is excellent downstairs connected to the extender. My computers and all. My phones get an incredible signal and works perfectly. Plus I need it for work.. now the issue I'm seeing with the Pixel 6 Pro is when I return home it seems my phone connects to upstairs and not my extender. So I notice it because my Wi-Fi bars are low and when I go into the settings I see fair connection 2.4 GHz usually and the only way I can get it back to the strong signal is by turning off Wi-Fi and turning it back on. Any thoughts? My iPhone seems to keep the connection. No problem when I come into the home..
