Hello,I have changed the mode of my Netgear modem-router to modem only, and I have connected it to the tp-link N750 as per the instructions.I can find both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks on my devices, but neither are connected to the Internet. I've connected the Ethernet cable to Ethernet port 1 on the Netgear modem. The lights on the Netgear are: Ethernet 1, wireless and DSL. The lights in the tp-link are system, 2.4GHz, 5GHz, and Internet (all flashing).Could anyone tell me why I'm unable to connect to the Internet on my devices?Many thanks!

Can you show us screen shot from TP-Link (Status tab)? What kind of OS do you have?

Thanks for your reply.I'm using OS X Yosemite. Here are some photos (forgive the graininess - they're taken with my phone as I don't have net access on my laptop).I have done a factory reset and made the modem into a bridge...Any advice would be hugely appreciated!

Hi,

Did you connect the Netgear to the Internet port (yellow) of the TP-Link?,

Do you have internet access without TP-Link?

Yes, I have restored the Netgear modem-router for now and disconnected the TP-Link router.

But when I bridge the Netgear modem and connect it to the TP-Link router the internet does not connect.

I am trying to connect the TP-Link using a PPPOE connection with my ISP username and password - which work fine on the Netgear and connect me to the internet okay, but which do not work on the TP-Link.

Hope this is clear... Please let me know if I can provide further info.

I'm not sure for 100% but you can to use "clone mac" function and copy mac address from computer to the TP-link WAN port. Next PPPoE tab where you will enter login and password from ISP.

Obviously that works, because your TP-link is not routing in this case, it's only an AP...
