What dsl router are you connecting it to? 

Cascading multiple routers can cause issues.

If the dsl router is in router mode, have you tried the RAX200 in access point mode? 

What firmware is on the RAX200?

Have you factory resetting it since getting it? (since its used)

first i did factory reset, and on latest firmware RAX200-V1.0.4.120_1.0.61, the modem router i used as primary is : TP-link Archer VR600, and today i use BE router HT138s maybe the tp-link not good , but how can i configure the two routers, to keep DHCP?  on the RAX to use WAN port?  what best setting for the RAX200 to work as router to take advantage of the 2.5g lan port on my desktop if there are no solution to make it AP?

If you're wanting both routers to have dhcp, put the netgear's ip address into whatever gateway you're using's DMZ.

otherwise you're cascading and it can cause issues. 

You can put the tp-link or HT138s in modem only/passthrough mode. 

Or the netgear in access point mode.
