I have a Playstation TV/Vita TV (please don't stop reading here) that I use for streaming my PS4 games when I want to play upstairs. The PSTV only has Wireless N and the streaming works MOST of the time. I have tested it connected directly over Ethernet, and all my issues go away... BUT, I am not cabled upstairs. I am using an RT-AC87U as my router, and someone gave me a RT-AC68U that I would like to use as a media bridge for the PSTV. when I try and connect through, the PSTV is unable to connect to the internet stating that the "NAT type" failed.

The connection Media Bridge is 5Ghz, 600Mbps, and RSSI: -56 dBm, so it should be fine. also, when My macbook is connected to the bridge, I have a pretty good connection over wifi (5GHz AC) with a 2ms ping with the exception of 4-6 dropped pings every 50 pings or so, something that doesn't happen when I connect directly to my router from the same location.

Like I said before, when I connect my PSTV directly to my switch RT-AC87U, everything works fine (it's NAT type 2).

I am running Asuswrt-Merlin 380.61 on both devices.

Thanks
 
I am still having this issue, but I have a little more info. Every time I turn on the PSTV, it seems to flood the RT-AC68U. the following shows up in the Logs when I turn it on, or do a network test:

it looks like you can disable this (https://bani.com.br/2015/06/linux-getting-rid-of-net_ratelimit-n-callbacks-suppressed-messages/), but before I SSH in, I want to make sure that I am not going to make the issue worse. ANY help would be awesome.

Thanks,
 
I have similar issue. I think. I have Netgear R7000 and main router and AC68U in media bridge. I have Xbox and htpc connected to AC68U. Both will loose connection overnight. It does seem that I can ping google from AC68UI UI in network tools, but htpc can't access internet at all.

Have you resolve your issue?
