[Router] Bridge Two Arris NVG468MQ Routers and Keep Same SSID

$

I am trying to bridge two Arris NVG468MQ. I first tried to IP pass through unsuccessfully. Then selected the transparent bridging and it appears to be working for wired connections. When I select transparent bridging the SSID resets to the default and default_5 (for 5 ghz). I wanted to have same SSID for the both routers so that devices can connect seamlessly. I can change the primary router SSID to the same SSID of second one, but that would mean changing wifi on 20+ IOT devices. The second problem is that at some point the wifi stopped working. I had only my phone connected to both wifi and it couldn't reach the internet thru the bridged router. I suspect that the wifi channels may be conflicting. I also read some guides that suggest that the bridged router should have the wifi turned off. I will try the IP pass through again tonight. Any suggestion would be helpful.
