Orbi AX 6000 and AT&T fiber gateway issue
I recently purchased the Orbi with WIFI 6 and planned on using them in AP mode to extend my U-verse Fiber gateway modem signal. Got the WiFi set up just fine but now my U-verse TV signal locks up afte...
- So AT&T came out and configured the gateway so that it all works now. They kept the tv feeds going to the gateway, set it to IP pass through and turned off he WiFi. The Orbi had to be set to router mode, not AP mode because of an IP conflict. Everything is running again.
You may be more likely to get an informed response by posting in the Netgear forum devoted to the WiFi6 (AX) product:

Not having an AX product, I can only hazard a guess, but it is hard to imagine how connecting a WiFi Access Point (Orbi or any other brand) to an internet gateway would disrupt the TV signal. I also note that people with AT&T ISP service seem to post a lot of problems on this forum, so there must be something about the "AT&T Gateway" that is different from typical cable modem systems.
