Fire Stick connection to router

[mole]

Hi

I have a 2.4ghz tp link 3420 router in my bedroom which I have wired to my router downstairs to extend the wireless network upstairs.

 

This works fine via mobile phones and via wired devices.

 

However my firestick does not like it, it will connect to it and says it has internet access but will drop it after a few seconds and say there is no internet access.

 

Its about 3 feet away and using the HDMI extender.

 

Tried resetting both devices and smart WiFi connections

 

Anything I should be doing differently?

Are bot wireless networks named the same with the same credentials? It may not like roaming between the two, so if that's case, name them slightly differently, I had to do this at a friends house, fixed a few issues

yeah they were named differently, wierdly whilst trying to connect to the slave routers ip address I turned off the main router, fiddled a bit more with the other router, and ended up turning everything back off and on again - once everything was back up, it connected fine and stayed connected.

IT technician gold right there!

 

That's 99% of my job summed up...
