Hello,

I have an router running in bridge mode. From a LAN port of this router I connect to the WAN port of my AC56U through PowerLAN. If I connect devices to the WLAN with this setup it works completely fine. If I try to use LAN however I don't have any internet access. To gain internet access I need to plug a cable from the LAN port of the AC56U into the second port of the PowerLAN box. This gives me internet access but I loose packets all the time, I suspect because it's some kind of LAN loop. I can't specify the routing on the PowerLAN device. Can I stop the packet loss somehow?
 
Solution
I would start with a factory reset of your router, redo the WIFI config and verify that your PC is set to DHCP from the router. There is no logical reason that WIFI would work and wired wouldn't.
