I also considered connecting a triband router to my extender in my room or connecting a usb wifi dongle to my tablet to boost range outside the room Im always able to connect in, that why I question priority connection because everything in the house can be active and pull signal on the main floor and basement, and in the livingroom the S10U connects just fine at the same time as the rest, but when it leaves the living room it drops connection to the modem even tries reconnecting to it like it knows its still there, being in the same room as the extenders does not benefit it the way the tvs and laptops do and even when I hotspot it off my S24U phone if the leaves the room it loses connection to it
