Moved my Orb Mesh from Voafone to Plusnet THG In Bridge Mode cant get Network working
My Orb Mesh has been connected via Vodafone Router for years, recently moved to Plusnet ADSL with THG3000 router. Set to Bridge Mode and entered User Name and Password on Orb PPOE WAN setting. Had my User Name and PW checked by Plusnet service and its correct. I connect from ORB Wan Port to Router THG3000 WAN Port.
The ORB Configures as far set up Network Fails.

I've seen some pretty sketchy bridge/passthrough mode lately.
Have you tried leaving the gateway in router mode (disable its wifi) and put the netgears IP address into its dmz?
When I look up PlusNet ADSL, I do not see this router as one of the choices:

The WAN port on the Orbi router must be connectedd to the ISP modem/router, but my guess is that the modem/router WAN port is not what should be used. Vodophone shows the WAN port being used (like with the Orbi) to connect to a fiber box.
