Can I use a TD-W8968 as a wireless access point using LAN connection to C50 AC1200 ?
Not familiar with this device but you should be able to do this with some fiddling.. here is my thinking
log into the device and set it as Wireless Router mode, the statically set an IP address on the device on a different subnet as your main router 192.168.1.1 vs 192.168.0.1 .. I would also enable DHCP Server on the AP
Consider disabling the DHCP Server on the Router if not required. If you have devices connecting LAN to this you may want to leave this enabled.
This theory this should work if you connect the 2x devices via the LAN connections
However you are likely to run into the Wireless connected to AP having a different subnet to the LAN connected to router.. just as these are both routers. If that is an issue you might be better just getting an AP, something like the EAP225 would be perfect for you.
Best of luck
