That's a good idea and I might try this at one point. Thanks!

Actually it seems to affect multiple manufacturers including Netgear and TP-Link. But if this can be solved with a simple firmware update, then yes why not.

It does interrupt broadband and intranet and I hope that this is not the official point of view of VM.

No, when did I say that? I am obviously not using two routers simultaneously. I have set the SH3 to modem mode and the Asus router as router and it works fine, as did the SH3 until yesterday. I am looking at an unnecessary additional device with ethernet and power cables and its own problems. Or do you think Asus routers are free of errors? Actually I have had a lot of router related connections issues when I have used the RT-AC66U in bridge mode over the last years. Several firmware updates have improved stability though.
Anyhow, I got your point and I will see how it goes. Thanks!
