Hi, sorry if my english is confusing ...but YES im want to Set it up as AP, YES it is wired connected and the used Port on the netgear is ligthed up green but NO the device denies permanently to obtain an IP from my Router! This is the Main Problem. DHCP on netgear is on , also on Router. Again,there are no restrictions on Router for connecting devices....All my other Hardware has no Problems....only this freaking netgear :(

Your English is fine.
Can you try a different Ethernet cable to use between the router and EX7000?
Is the Ethernet cable plugged into a LAN port on the Draytek Vigor?
Is the link light for the Ethernet port on your Draytek Vigor router green?
Is the Ethernet port on your Draytek enabled?
Is the link speed set on the Draytek set to either Auto or 1 Gbps FDX?
Are you using VLANs on your Draytek?
Is the IP Pool counts on your Draytek large enough to assign IP addresses to the EX7000 and its clients?
Do you have any restrictions enabled in the Firewall of your Draytek? The firewall looks pretty powerful, so make sure the LAN port used by the EX7000 is allowed and that there are no Access Control Lists configured that would block packets coming from the EX7000.
