WiFi not working after switching off DCHP server

Hey,
I want to use a TP Link AC 1750 as a WiFi Access Point. We already have a Thomson thg540k, so the cable to which the TP Link is connected already has a usable internet connection. (When you directly connect the cable to a PC it works just fine).
I followed this tutorial to use the router just as a Wireless Access Point: http://www.tp-link.com/en/FAQ-417.html
The issue is, as soon as I disable the DHCP server and reboot the router I can no longer connect to the WiFi I set up prior. On iPhone it says "No internet connection" while still trying to connect to the WiFi.
When connecting a computer to any of the other free LAN ports the internet connection still works just fine.
Additionally I can't connect to the web setup page of the TP Link, but I think that's just because the router get's assigned a random IP when the DHCP server is disabled.
Any ideas why the WiFi doesn't work?
Thank you very much
