Hi everyone,

I have a wire connection to the Internet. I am trying to set it such that it can connect to my TL-WR740N and use the wireless to access this wire network. The TL-WR740N acts as an Access Point.

This is what I have done:
- disable DHCP
- set an IP on the TL-WR740N such that it is the same as the wire network
- connect the wire cable to the TL-WR740N (one of the sockets and not the WAN)
- disable wifi security
- on my laptop's wifi setting set as the setting i would use for the wire network.

The problem is that i cannot access the Internet via wifi.

If i use a cable and plug my computer to the TL-WR740N, i can access the wire network and access the Internet.

It seems I am not setting something in the router such that it can send the data from the wire network to wifi.

Can someone offer me some advice?

Thanks!
Cliff
