That $120 wireless bridge was a total waste of time

Installed a wireless bridge from the big box store on a job in Springfield last month to avoid pulling cable through an attic. Spent almost 4 hours troubleshooting drops before realizing it just couldn't handle the panel polling rate. Had to run the wire anyway and return that thing. Anyone else bought a shortcut that ended up costing double the labor?

Was the packet loss bad from the start, or did it show up later?

Was it there from the start, or did it creep in after an update or a reboot? Just trying to figure out if it's a hardware thing or something software-related.

Rebooted it three times, still blames me for the bad wifi.
