Mac OS Monterey: Mac connecting to weakest AP

[7422736m]

Hi All!
I have a MacBook Pro 14 inch, and my wifi network has 2 APs with the same SSID (i need it that way so my devices roam between the two according to signal strength).
This works pretty fine for almost every situations.
I have several devices: laptops (a mac and a ThinkPad), smartphones (iPhone and Samsung) and a tablet (Samsung).
The only device that is giving me trouble is the Mac.
99% of the time I work form my home office, for which my main AP is very close and whose signal strength is pretty strong. The other AP is on the other side of the house and although getting signal on my office, it is rather weak.
Well, my Mac insists on randomly disconnecting from the strongest AP and connecting to the weakest one.
When I notice it (if I'm on Youtube I notice videos tend to freeze) I simply click on the wifi icon to disconnect from network, and after reconnecting it gets back to the strongest AP. But after a while off he goes to the weakest one.
It's a crazy behavior and I simply can't sort this out.
Pretty inconsistent, if we consider the iPhone deals with the same network pretty great, and is always connected to the strongest AP.
Any input on this?
I tried almost everything with no luck.
Contacted Apple, but they simply start to loop around some preset steps and end up being no help at all.

Maybe those APs are configured slightly differently? Are they are different bands? The Mac might prefer one band to another. Does one have 80MHz channels in the 5GHz band but one doesn't?

Both have 80 MHz channels, and both configurations are the same, although brands are different.

You can look in the advanced settings for the list of WiFi connections. I think the Mac starts at the top of the list looking for a connection. If the weak one is on top that's where it connects. You can move them up and down but I don't think you can pick by signal strength.

I have one WiFi router with just one SSID which automatically selects the "best" frequency with no option to manually choose. It seems to always select the slowest one, so I changed to another router which allows me to select the frequency which in my case is almost always 5 Ghz. Takes a bit more time when auto selection is off, but ensures that you get the best connection available.
