Using R7800 bridge mode (ping general failure)
Hi. Recently, I bought and use R7800 due to a device failure. I have error after changing the switch Symptoms experience internet loss non-periodicly every 1 to 2 hours. As a result of continuing ...
Hi.
I decided not to use bridge mode, but to take two IP Subnet bands. (I changed it to Router mode.)
In bridge mode, intermittent break still occurs, but the problem does not occur after changing to Router mode. Perhaps there is a problem with the bridge mode operating on the R7800.
Anyway, I avoided that problem, and after changing to Router mode, I need to set up NAT in a small way, but I'm satisfied.

No packet errors occur on TV and media devices at the same time.
I don't think there's anything else to set up as a bridgemode, so what's the problem?
Wireless bridge mode?
Bridged with what?
What firmware version do you have on the device?
A number is more useful than "the latest". (It may not be by the time people read this.) There can also be newer versions, or "hot fixes", that do not show up if you check for new firmware in the browser interface.
Hi, thank you for your reply.
I'm not using wireless AP, I'm only using wired.
The firmware is V 1.0.2.62, but I know it's up to date.
So what do you mean by bridge mode?
That usually means that you have a router to router link running over wifi.
What is this "Gateway"?
It might also help if you told people what the modem is in front of this router. The model number could be useful. Is it, by any chance, also a router, with a set of LAN ports on the back?
Is that the gateway?
