WDS not getting ip address

Bluecurve Modem

TPLink Archer C60 router

I have configured my router to run in WDS mode and have a successful status of RUN, indicating that it is configured correctly according to TPLink.  However, after rebooting the modem, then the router, it is still not providing internet to the modem wirelessly.  Whatever help you can provide would be most appreciated as getting to this point has been a lot of work and I am hoping you can help me get the last piece of the puzzle!  Thank you!

@Michaelkar -- try these steps:

  1. power-off the cable-modem
  2. power-off the TPLink
  3. power-on the cable-modem, and let it fully restart
  4. can you connect from your smart-phone to the SSID provided by the cable-modem, and get Internet access, to prove that everything is "normal" ?
  5. power-on the TPLink
  6. using an Ethernet cable, connect its WAN port to a LAN port on the cable-modem
  7. connect an Ethernet cable from a LAN port on the TPLink to a computer (Mac or Windows)
  8. from the computer, logon to the TPLink's web-interface
  9. does it show a valid IP-address for its WAN port?
  10. does it show a valid IP-address for the active LAN port?

I hope this helps.
