For me, bridging the MAC address from LAN to WAN did the trick (check this reply: https://community.tp-link.com/us/home/forum/topic/175656?replyId=373344)

 

Would be great to get confirmation if that works for you as well.

I have set up bridging but no luck. Does the router need rebooted to have this take affect? Should I try to disable NAT boost?

I have to make the note: If you use the C9 as an Access Point, please always just select 'Access Point' under 'Operating Mode' and reboot, unless you need the extra settings such as MAC Filtering.

 

That said, if you want to use the C9 (a) as an Access Point and (b) want the extra settings, you can try these settings:

 

Network

  - Internet

      - Internet Connection Type: Dynamic IP

      - Use Default MAC Address

      - LAN: Use Fixed IP Address In Your LAN Range

      - Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

      - DHCP Server: OFF

 

Operating Mode

  - Router Mode

 

System Tools

  - System Parameters

      - Enable WDS Bridging: ON (And Bridge the C9s LAN MAC)

      - Enable NAT: ON

      - Enable NAT Boost: ON

I am using the Archer C9 as router for DSL connection. This issue just started to happen.
