I changed my broadband provider because i was not getting enough speed. My new broadband provider uses f-connector wire. Wire is connected to Cisco DPQ2160 modem. Output from modem is via ethernet cable.

I connected this ethernet cable to LAN4/WAP port of TPLINK TD-W8968 and configured it . But it's not working. Internet is not working.

I configured it by these steps:

Quick Setup -> Wireless Router Mode -> Dynamic IP.

Is there any additional setting or configuration i need to do?

Internet is working if i'm connecting ethernet cable directed to my laptop.

That sounds like it is wired correctly. On the TPLINK TD-W8968 under WAN service connection make sure the WAN service type is set correctly. Yours is probably IP over Ethernet. If your requires an ID and password it is probably PPP over ethernet.
