TP-Link Wifi Extender - Chromecast issue

I’ve got a TP-Link Wifi Extender (Model No. TL-PA4010) that I use upstairs for the PC through ethernet and the chromecast in the bedroom. I’ve found that the casting from my mobile to the chromecast has been problematic. It just takes turns on whether or not it will work. I’ve ended up just turning it off and suffering the poor WiFi for the time being. Anyone able to help me with how to fix this ?

Your problem is going to be the wifi extender. I would reccomend you set your extender to use a different ssid. That way you can select what device you want to use instead of your phone making a "best" guess

A better solution for wifi would be a powerline + access point
