Interesting Joe, well it has stayed with the Extender for a few hours and the SNR is much better with the extender right now.

I have not yet see it go from router to extender, only switch from extender to router. That said, most indicators are that the extender is going better, snr, signal% etc., so I figured it should always be on the extender. The extender is right next to the laptop which plays the TV shows.

That said, is there a default way to keep it on the extender? Or should I not worry about it? It will self correct and choose the better one?
