Ddwrt Garden wifi range

Go to solution Solved by Electronics Wizardy,

only use the lan port, and use it as a ap only and it will show up justt fine.

So i got an new tplink tl-wr1043nd v2 (with ddwrt) and i installed it into my garden (Yes with power and yes with protection so it cannot get wet) also it got an wired connection to it,

i only need wifi from it but i want it to get the users in the DHCP Client list in the main router interface just like the user named "DUNE" in screenshot 2, is that possible and if witch mode in ddwrt has to been used?

set it up as access point, or set an external DHCP server on the garden router and set that to the main routers local ip.

Thanks, worked.

Also used a littlebit of this tutorial to finetune it.
