I'm not a network export so forgive incorrect terminology.
I have Sonic FTTN and all is working well with that basically. But maybe there's something wrong with the router portion of my modem? Or maybe not. I dunno.
One of the things I have plugged into it, via a cable thru the walls is an old dsl modem configured in bridge mode. Into that I have plugged my printer and tivo. This has worked fine for a while. Also have WiFi on there cuz better signal in front of the house.
Suddenly today I can't print, then come to find tivo also no network, and also it's wifi won't work. the box itself seems to be turning on and off every so often perhaps. I dunno.
Thinking it's just random glitch, I power cycle to reboot. Same. Reset it, configure my network name/password, back to bridge mode, and try again. Same. Try power cycling main modem. Same. So seems to me that old dsl modem failed, but lucky for me I have a backup, which I happened to test a couple weeks ago cuz I put it on letgo for sale, but nobody has picked it up. It's another slightly newer old dsl modem, a sonic pace 4111N in fact, which I'd already configured in bridge mode. Anyway, it's doing the same thing. Also tried resetting and re-configuring it for bridge mode per https://wiki.sonic.net/wiki/Pace_4111N#Bridge_mode , but no change.
And like I said I just tested it a couple weeks ago so just weird that both of them aren't working. So it made me think maybe it's actually the main modem router. I tried clearing the device list from the reset menu. Anyways it doesn't seem to see anything plugged into a 2nd router in bridge mode anymore. And I dunno how to troubleshoot next. I've done the factory resets on everything.
