Mesh Wi-Fi 6 System

To make an Amplifi HD mesh system and T-Mobile Home Internet Gateway play nice: I set the main Amplifi HD on bridge mode. Refer to this article for reference -https://help.amplifi.com/hc/en-us/articles/220979347-Enabling-Bridge-Mode.
When I had first connected the T-Mobile Home Internet Gateway to the my Amplifi HD mesh system using the DHCP mode, the main Amplifi HD worked and the mesh nodes did not work.
So I contacted Amplifi tech support (via email) and they said when there are 2 routers to use bridge mode on one of them, since 2 routers cause double NAT which may affect some services. When I called T-Mobile, they said that T-Mobile Home Internet Gateway does not have bridge mode. Therefore, I had to set the Amplifi HD to bridge mode. Now, it all works fine and I get the same speed throughout the house and on all the mesh nodes. By the way, my speed is usually around 60-70 Mbps down (or less sometimes), 9 up, a ping of 50-60 ms, and two bars showing on the gateway.
