strange problem router not passing packets when connect via secondary access points

i have a strange problem ./

configuring a new bt88 as a backup private to public router..

everything works with same settings in the ax11000 pro
firewall is off as i have an external firewall on the mail router

i have 2 other routers upstairs and downstairs for wifi
everything is working when plugg into my switches even the stuff on the other wifi router downstairs.. but wifi itself for any devices connected via wifi is not working on either router it cannot see the internet so n o packets are being passed

i have isolated the issue to the new bt88 i have put in place that is supposed to route for one of my private ips to the public subnet..

why would it pass packets perfectly for anything hardwired. including the secondary routers but no let anything go out that is connecting to my network via wifi?
