    As advised here, instead of using Asus RT-N18u as a range extender, I am now setting the Asus as an Access Point connected to my main router [Linksys AC 1900]. However, while my Asus router is visible to the Linksys router, yet I have no access to the internet if my devise (Mi Box) is connected wirelessly to the Asus router. What settings should I do?

    By "visible" do you mean it has a wired connection to the Linksys router?

    Not familiar with the Asus UI, but you should:

    - set it up AP mode
    - set it to bridge mode
    - set its SSID to the same one on the Linksys router
    - have its gateway set to the Linksys router
    - disable DHCP service

    Correct. It should also have its own IP address being in bridge mode.
