Thanks for the reply!
The routers are of different brands, different interface, and IP's were changed before the rest of the config so I'm pretty sure I put the right modem in bridge mode.
Can you please expand on this: "As soon as a modem/router has been switched to Bridge Mode, only one port will be working"? From what I understand on that statement, in bridge mode, only one device can connect to the network, that being my laptop. But I also tried turning off the laptop's wifi and connecting my Note, still didn't work.
Or maybe I'm just confusing "Bridge" with "Repeater"?
