Why does the 4G LTE network extender impact my internet connection?

Hello, I successfully setup the Samsung 4G LTE network extender, and it indeed does work well with my Samsung s8+, but in doing so, it absolutely throttles my general pc internet connection, even if phone device is not utilizing it at the time.  I have a Spectrum business class line at 70 meg down and 5 meg up, and when the network extender is plugged into the LAN, even if not being accessed by s8+, my pc connection speed drops to 3 or even below.  As soon as I unplug the network extender, my pc internet speeds are back to full throttle at 70meg.

Is there a way to adjust the bandwidth that the extender is using?  I even tried setting QOS to low for the lan port it is attached to with no luck.

By simply being plugged in, it makes the pc web access intolerable.

Thank you
