Piratebox as wifi extender - not able to connect through

Hallo,

I've set up psk2 wifi protection on my piratebox and now want to use the box as a wifi extender. I've plugged in an ethernet cable from my ISP provieded router into my piratebox (TP-Link MR3020). Now when I connect to the piratebox through wifi, I can't connect to wrt through ssh or visit piratebox.lan. If I unplug the ethernet and restart the piratebox, then ssh and the website works again. If I then plug in the ethernet cable, then I can't surf the internet, unless I replug the power. After this quick reboot I get back to the first problem of not being able to connect to the piratebox with ssh. It is as if the local network piratebox functionality turns off when it works as a wifi extender, but I can't figure out why. I would very much like to use the piratebox both as a wifi extender alongside its other usefull local functions such as the piratebox.lan website. Any help will be greaty appreciated :)
