AE to wired router = works with Mac's but not iPhone

So I have a dLink router and and AE. the AE is connected to the dLink. My mac's will connect and run fine off of the AE, but the iPhones will connect, but exchange minimum amounts of data. Could somebody help me out?

The dLink has the following settings.

My Internet Connection is : Dynamic IP (DHCP)
Advanced DNS service : Not Enabled
Use Unicasting: Yes
Wireless Enabled: No
Enable DNS Relay: Yes
Enable DHCP Server: Yes
Always Broadcast: Yes
Enable QoS Engine: Yes
Automatic Uplink Speed: Yes
Enable SPI Firewall: Yes
Enable anti-spoof checking: No
Enable UPnP: Yes
Enable WAN Ping Respond: Yes

The AE has the following settings:
Connect Using: DHCP
Network Mode: Create a wireless network
Router Mode: Off (Bridge Mode)

Something is definitely wrong the iPhone will connect to the AE but not receive data.

I'm betting using the AE as a print hub won't work as well.

Somebody help!

Is the router running your DNS Service or not?

I'm a complete dummy on networking so I do not know.

I'm using AE because it works great with all my apple products. Don't really have any better reason.The AE needs to be just for WI-FI not the router. I want the d-link to handle the routing.

open terminal on your mac and write
scutil --dns

Look up "resolver #1" for the IP of -> nameserver.
In airport utility put in the IP-adress at DNS settings.

Thx, but it is already set with the resolver 1 DNS.

Router Mode: Off (Bridge Mode) <--------------------- Change to bridge mode.

This allows you to bridge the 2 physical networks. Make sure you have DHCP with the same scope running on your router.

If I'm not mistaken Off (Bridge Mode) is in bridge mode. The other two options are "DHCP and NAT" and DHCP Only.

For some reason when using airport utility on the iPhone the AE always is shown as green, but the "internet" keeps going from green to yellow and back again. When I click on it connection switched from Connected to Disconnected. The router and dns servers are 192.168.0.1.

My wireless connection on my macs is solid.

Anybody have any ideas?

Have you got the airport utility app on your iphone??

Yes. I is green for AE but intermittently changes from green to yellow for internet.

Probably not unless it auto updates. I'm guessing I do this through airport utility?

I updated my iPhone to 6.1 and everything started working correctly!
