Connecting another router which act as an AP to bridged LAN ports

Hi! I'm upgrading my old router to a 4 port N5105 device bought from Ali and I have problems connecting my second router which act as an AP in my home's network to my opnsense device. In opnsense I have a DHCP server, ports 1-3 bridged as LAN and I use port 4 as WAN. On my router-AP I have DHCP server turned off, it's IP set to static 192.168.1.2 and it's connected to opnsense through LAN ports on both sides. This configuration worked fine on my old router, but I can't get it to work on opnsense. From devices connected directly to opnsense I can access my second router-AP 192.168.1.2, but from him or devices connected through WiFi to him I can't access opnsense and I have no internet access.
What am I doing wrong? Thank you very much for help.

I don't know what was the issue, but I've bought an unmanaged switch, removed the bridge and used one port as LAN, connected switch to LAN and all my devices including AP to switch and it's now working fine.
