Newish router from ISP, now changed for a different one (different ISP), it was using the Optic Fiber for getting internet to the flat.
Now when using it as an Access Point, it only works if I plug the Ethernet into one of the 4 LAN yellow ports. Can anyone confirm what is the “Internet” port for? and maybe why doesn’t get internet when plugged there?
Router is updated and tried both with and without the DHCP option enabled, same result, nothing.
Which brings me to the second question, once DHCP is disabled, I am not able to find the second router by its URL, gateway or IP address .
The main router will show the second router’s IP, but will be unreachable on the browser, and default getaway will bring to the main router.

The internet port is for connecting to your isp, unless you are able to disable the firewall, your connection from your new device will be blocked as seen as external connections. You should disable dhcp server on the second device to avoid ip issues, if you get the internet port working you will like be behind double Nat causing issues with online gaming. If your aim is one network it’s easier to use the lan ports, but still disable the dhcp server on it.
