I just switched ISP services, and my new ISP gave me a Pace 5268ac modem / router.
The weird part about the Pace 5268ac is that I've configured the wireless settings to match my previous router settings, so that all my wireless devices would instantly connect as if there were no changes, and this worked. My laptops and phones automatically reconnected without having to re-configure them, but my wireless bridge doesn't even see the WiFi broadcast name (SSID). How is this possible if all my other devices automatically reconnected just fine?
I've power cycled the wireless bridge, factory reset the wireless bridge, but it's still unable to see the broadcasting WiFi name. Is there a special setting somewhere on the Pace 5268ac that doesn't allow wireless bridges to connect to it?
I'm stumped!
