hi

i have 2 modems which i want to use for internet one TL-WR841N and one tplink CF234F

my internet connection comes from a device on my roof and connects to first modem TL-WR841N by a lan cable, then from TL-WR841N one lan cable comes to my second modem, first modem is in a part of house and second one is in another, problem is that when i connect to my second modem i don't have any internet connection while lan led is on.(i connect to both of them by wireless)
how should i config these modems to have internet with both of them?

Well the thing is simple, you have your main router and from that router you connect the cable to your second router. Now, if you disable DHCP on your second router, the second router you have will just act as an access point.

After you do this, connect to your second router (AP) and ping your main router and postback your result.

From your second router's web interface disable DHCP server and reboot it. Now, you can access internet from both the routers or if your second router has a wan port you can connect the cable from first router to the WAN port of second router.
