Personally i hate range extenders because of many reasons imo useless toy kind of device, expensive, shorter lifespan i had pathetic experience with dlink dap1325 that is why i am saying that

1 - disable dhcp on the secondary router
2 - give it an ip and add that ip as static ip on the main router.
3- connect both through ethernet and it should work.

You dont need to disable anything or give the 2nd router (wireless-AP) a static ip. Just use it as an wireless access point by connecting an ethernet cable from your original router to one of the AP's LAN ports, usually yellow colored. You can even give the 2nd wireless-AP a different/same SSID (wifi name) and password.
It won't have an ip and will work as a dumb layer 2 forwarding device.

I second it, it can be used both wireless lu and through wire to the actual host network. I just got a used tplink router for 2k and it works great. You simply need to connect the router to the host wifi and generate new wifi network with different ssid and password even.

I think i made some mistake in configuring the second router, access point router is not working when connected through lan ports it is now working when connected to WAN port i have made no changes in the settings of first router i do not know how to assign the static ips to second router just i set it up to work as access point lol...
If you guys know how to configure tenda ka 3 antenna wala router please share the authentic process.
Personally i feel the need to reconfigure the router because i am having problems regarding to the distribution of network traffic its creating some glitches some times on 1st router and some times high pings on second router
