That is to be expected. LP-Bridge is a "radio proxy" - it answers most
polls from an image of radio settings it keeps in memory. However,
that will not work with "TB;"
Since I'm going to be controlling and polling the radio using DX Lab
Suite, Skimmer, NaP3 and N1MM in the future I obviously need both
Bridge and Router working at the same time. Is there any way to use
both of these apps together without incompatibility issues?
You could run either N1MM or Commander on Router's CAT port and CW
Skimmer/OmniRig on the 2nd CAT port. NaP3 can be connected to the
Secondary CAT Serial Port in Commander. You can not run N1MM, NaP3
and CW Skimmer all at the same time unless the developers of N1MM+
or NaP3 implement support for OmniRig so two applications can share
one port. Note however, N1MM+ and NaP3 both abuse the limits of
reasonable rig polling.
Is there a way to keep Router only for Winkey and RTTY/digi-modes
using the MK-II but letting Bridge handle the CAT control and poll
functions to all my loggers, my skimmer and so on?
Absolutely not - Router must have direct access to the rig or the
mode sensitive functions of microKEYER II will not function.

I've had problems with CAT control going the other way, too. Bridge
fails to connect automatically to the K3 on the Router-created COM-2
port. It will connect--eventually and manually--but it's not simple.
