Up until recently I have been running an AmplfiHD as a router using an openreach vdsl modem. After some recent downstream speed issue the fault was found to be modem. So at the moment I have plugged in the router from Plusnet and have the AmplifiHD connected to one of the ethernet ports on the router and in the WAN port of the Amplifi. I have moved the wired connections from the Amplifi to the plusnet router and am looking to use the Amplifi to handle all the wifi as I have one of the modules that go with it as mesh system.

Everything seems to be able to get to the internet the only issue I am now having is that from my PC which is wired I cannot get to my printer which is on Wifi and handled by the Amplifi.

So I am not sure what I need to change in the config to allow me to print. I can see in the Amplifi app I have the option of turning on bridging. If this is the solution will I need to connect it to the router but not use the WAN port on the Amplifi?

Or am I better off getting a new vdsl modem from Draytek?
 
Thanks for the reply. I think as first step I will try your suggestion of moving the wired devices back to the Amplifi router.
