Hi
Ive setup my new W8980 as a bridge as per this link http://www.tp-link.com/en/article/?faqid=447 but I've a problem with connecting with an Ethernet cable to the internet.

I have bridged to a Tg582n and can access the internet wirelessly through the W8980 without problems, but if I connect to the W8980 via Ethernet cable I cannot access the internet via that method. My intention was to connect to the W8980 via Ethernet cable and allow me to access the internet without running cables around the house.

advice would be much appreciated as I've spent days researching this and can not work out where I'm going wrong.

Sounds strange. How did you test W8980 has been cofigured in WDS mode successfully?
With cable plugged in W8980, any IP address obtained on your PC? Default gateway is IP address of Tg582n?

1921681254 is IP of tg582n, I tested the w8980 by connecting to it via wifi on my phone and being able to access the internet.
I've done it a few times and works fine.

Did you try different computer to connect by cable? What's the IP address and default gateway obtained when it is connected to TD-W8980 by cable?
