WDS doesn't work wirelessly
First, I note down my primary wifi 2.4ghz SSID, PASSWORD AND MAC Address on paper.
For Tp link modem, I used official support page to update firmware successfully.
Here are my troubleshooting steps:
1. I plugged in TP link router and reset it first
2. I changed the Wi-Fi (SSID) name and left the other settings default, Bridge mode is set by default
3. I changed SSID and set password and Save settings.

4. Then, I opened LAN settings and changed IP address to 192.168.1.2 and disabled DHCP settings, then Save it.
5. I logged in after IP changed successfully. Then turned on WDS settings where I use (1) primary modem password and select AES in option and (2) MAC address which I noted before setting this up
WAN settings page
6. I pressed SAVE button which restarted the modem.
7. Now, Issue arises, I was able to fill password and connect but my device stuck on 'Connecting....' loader and restart connecting.
I used this modem roughly 6-8 days. Since then, it's packed in original box.
I just want to know will it work or I've wasted my money on original product?
Even none of any tutorial has Orange User interface.
