Telus Router connection to a wireless adapter

[wireless]

Having a problem with wireless adapter connection to my Telus router and then being able to connect to my Windows 10 laptop.
Want the D-link range extender adapter used for TV only to connect to the Telus Router on its own.
Then want to have a separate connection to router for my laptop.
Currently show 2 choices (but not always!) 1 = Telus 2 = Telus-EXT
Adapter only to connect TV to internet. Serves as the ethernet wired connection to the TV. No wireless card in TV.
Distance between all 3 is like a triangle - same distance between units.
Can not seem to stop Windows 10 laptop from choosing the extender named and shows as Telus-EXT! And not even showing the actual router connection "Telus".
Is there something I can do to connect
- the extender to the router on and show it as something else which Windows 10 laptop might accept as forget (apparently that is the "delete"?)
And then
- is there someway to create a connection for laptops that goes direct to the router NOT trying to go through TV adapter connection to router?
