i need to configure a wireless bridge (something like a wireless switch).

I have TP-LINK TL-WR740N v4.22 with OPENWRT installed and other TP-LINK router with default firmware. I need to do this setup:

Router A (connected to the Internet via WAN port) have IP: 192.168.12.1 and is running DHCP Server

Router B (OPENWRT) is connecting to ROUTER A via WiFi - how to configure interfaces here ?

PC A - Connected by wire to Router B - should obtain IP from Router's A DHCP server.

How to configure it?

To achieve this, you need to first set your LAN interface to static on Router B. Then in the physical settings for LAN, bridge it between eth1 and your master WIFI.

LAN Configuration Bridge settings

Then head to Network-> Wifi-> Scan and Join Router A as a client and assign network to wwan.

Client config

Finally create an AP and link it to the lan interface. (Network-> Wifi-> Add)
