Tags: #Wireless Bridging
Model: TD-W8961N  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 3.0.0 Build 170919 Rel.21648

I have new Internet Service Provider and they gave me Nokia modem to use optic internet. But İ want to use my old Tp-Link TD-W8961N modem as wireless range extender. The problem is I have not any wds or internet bridging options in my Nokia modem to use wireless bridging. I can only use wired connection to connect my main router. So how can I bridge the connections between Tp-Link and Nokia modem wireless? Some Tp-Link modems have automatic wireless bridging feature (you can connect the main router by knowing only name and password and without any changes in main router) can I use something like this but in my Tp-Link TD-W8961N?

TD-W8961N can only make a WDS connection with another TD-W8961N - check this guide.
