i added a second router at home, but it’s still losing connection. when i enable bridge mode on my main router, the second one stops disconnecting, but if i switch to bridge mode, the main router drops completely. since it only works in bridge mode and i don’t want that, i’m unsure how to fix it without changing the setup.

Curious about the setup? Two routers might be used for better coverage or redundancy.

Just trying to grasp how everything works. I know people tend to respond more when they're shouted at, especially if someone is asking for assistance.

I'm sorry, I didn't intend to use Google Translate. Could you clarify what you meant?

A network diagram usually involves two routers, which isn't ideal. You likely only need a single access point.

The router handles NAT and firewall tasks, while the access point only allows wireless connections. Here’s a simple network layout: router connects to firewall, which manages NAT and security, and the access point provides Wi-Fi access. Diagram not included here but can be drawn based on this description.
