D-Link Dir-615 router setting in bridge mode

Q: There is an Internet gateway and a router in a local network. The Internet gateway connects to the Internet via cable using PPPoE. Computers with shared files are connected to it. The router D-link DIR-615 is connected to the main one by cable and has a static address in the local network. Other computers are connected to it via cables and wi-fi. When you configure the router as a Wi-Fi point, all connected to it comps have access to the Internet, but do not see the common files on the computers connected to the gateway. Question: How can I configure the router to work as a bridge (i.e. all the computers on the cable would see each other and could have their own addresses in the local area) and give out wi-fi?

Answer:

What internet gateway do you have installed?

I think the problem will be solved by disabling the DHCP server on the D-link DIR-615. And maybe by connecting the cable from the main one not to the WAN port, but to the LAN. I’ll have to try it.
