Windows 10: Network Connections within Single Network

I have a base modem and a network extender. I would like to have Windows seek and automatically log into and out of the different devices when I move from one room to another.


I am using Windows 10 up-to-date. Currently, if I am logged into the internet via the main modem and move to an area where I need the range extender, I need to manually select the range extender for the system to use that connection even though I have it set up to connect automatically.


Any suggestions?

Losing network connection

Hello Dear, if you have a laptop or a PC with a wireless network adapter, you can see a list of available wireless networks and then connect to one of those networks. The wireless networks will only appear if your PC has a wireless network adapter installed, the adapter is turned on, and the wireless access point is in range.

1. Click Start, click Control Panel, click Network and Internet Connections, and then click Network Connections.

2. In the left pane, under Network Tasks, click View available wireless networks.
In case, If you don't see the network you want to connect to, click Refresh network list. If you see the network but the signal is weak, move the PC closer to the wireless router.

3. Click the network you want to connect to, and then click Connect.

4. If you're connecting to a secure network, type the security key, and then click OK.

I Hope you solve out your query soon.
