Hello @JAxCk ,

Welcome to our community.

Please confirm that you have set the Access Point mode correctly: TL-WA855RE(EU)_V4_User Guide (From page 20)

 

Please follow the below steps to do the troubleshooting:
    1. Make sure the front router's Internet works fine by using a PC to wired to the same port of the router to have a test.
    2. Confirm the front-end router's maximum connected devices. If close to or at the limit, reduce devices and retest.
    3. Replace the cable connecting the access point and the router.
    4. Switch to a different LAN port on the router.
    5. Reset and reconfigure the access point.
