Nov 17, 2016ISP MODEM/ROUTER in bridge mode connected to R8000 by WLAN explain this?
Have tried using ISP modem/router in router mode and using r8000 in AP mode?

i meant connecting the ISP modem/router from lan port to Netgear R8000 internet port (yellow one).
using the netgear in AP, won't reduce it's capacity?
the internet speed is great, streaming online is great.
the main issue is that devices connected wired can't communicate with the wireless devices properly.
all the devices were connected in the same way, what i changed is the VLAN mode, to be able to be connected to the new ISP fiber optic modem/router.
without VLAN mode there was no way to be connected.
thank you in advance & regards,

Hi jumanji1969,
1. Where did you configure the VLAN mode? Is it on the router or your modem?
2. Are the HD movies being watched locally or via Interner(Online Streaming)?
