Do you lose any bandwidth in bridge mode? I’m about buy a new Ubiquiti Edge router and a few APs. With AT&T I can’t do a true bridge mode or use my own modem.

With AT&T I can’t do a true bridge mode or use my own modem. Their gateway has to do the authentication to the network and I’m stuck with it if I want gigabit fiber. People on dslreports lost a good bit of bandwidth on a gigbit connection writing rules on the edge router to authenticate back through the gateway.

- Fnoord 8y ago> Do you lose any bandwidth in bridge mode? If you put your ISP's router in bridge mode: no. If you put the Ubiquiti router in bridge mode: yes (but it allows you to have bridging between WLAN and LAN whilst still on separate ports).
