Actiontec T3200M and ASUS RT-AC88U

[news]

[wireless]

Recently signed up for Optik TV and upgraded internet connection to fiber 150/150 at same time. Prior to Telus installation and internet upgrade I had successfully configured a fully functional wired house - all devices were connected, mostly thru hard wiring (Roku boxes, nVidia Shield, TV's, Hue lights, Samsung SmartThings hub, etc.).

Wiring from router goes thru walls with switch boxes in receiving rooms to feed the various devices. Since the installation I have not had any success in getting the Optik TV to route thru my ASUS router. I have configured the Actiontec T3200M to enable bridge mode thru port 1 which feeds my WAN port on the router. From my router I have the ethernet cables that feed my TV's plugged in. When I turn on the Optik TV I will only get a TV feed for about 10-15 seconds before it freezes up. If I feed the TV's from any of the available ports (2-4) on the Actiontec it streams fine. I do not want to feed my various devices from the Actiontec - I want my configured router to do that task. What am I missing? Been pulling my hair out for a week now trying to fix this, but to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.
