Issues with calls on network extender

Verizion sent me a network extender since I was having issues with calls and texts.  I have been having issues for months.  Tons of troubleshooting via calls, chats and tech coach.  Finally a manager said needed extender and sent one.  So I went from 1 bar to full 5.  Then starting having issues with all calls going straight to voicemail.  No missed call notice.  Then Verizon sent a replacement phone.  Still issues.  I unplugged the network extender and now calls come in.  But now 1 bar.  Anyone deal with this. So frustrated as dealing with this for months and not getting anywhere let a lone paying for services I am not getting

As far as troubleshooting I have reset network settings, factory reset phone.  Checked the airplane mode and forward calling.  Plus more.  I now have wifi calling on which I hate since it drops the call if I am outside of my house.  The extender is near our modem and by a window like instructions stated.
