Dropped contact with Extender

Extender connects to Router 2,4 GHz and extender is contactable by smart phone and outdoor device. Password is same as 2.4 GHz on router, 2.4 GHz Blue light shows on extender.
Extender also connects to 5.0 GHz on router. Pasword is same as 2.4 GHz on extender but not the same as 5.0GHz on router.. Smart phone will not connect to 5.0GHz on extender using either password.
Connection between extender and outdoor device was successful for about 30 hours.
However, it appears that the extender's 5.0 GHz is confusing the device that will only accept 2.4 GHz. Contact broke and the device will not reconnect automatically.
It appears that I need to cut the 5.0 GHz on the extender so that I only have the 2.4 GHz working on the extender.The router's 5.0 and 2.4 signals are weak where the device is located.
When I turn the extenders 5.0 wireless off on the TP LInk I loose both the 5.0 and the 2.4.
