DD-WRT router behind ISP modem/router (dmz)

So we recently switched from ISP and they both have the same modem, however our new ISP the firmware is terrible.. way less options and stuff like forwarding just isn't working. And best of all is they won't even help because they just plain don't support forwarding or DMZ. So now we are trying to setup our own router thats running dd-wrt behind it.

The ISP router is a ZTE 369a and our own router being a TL-WDR3600 (running dd-wrt.

What i did so far: Give the own router his own IP, setup DMZ in the modem with that same IP and assign public IP to the mac address of our own router. Now whenever going to 192.168.1.1 im seeing the dd-wrt interface and no longer the ISP modem interface so thats succes right?

However i have no idea how to setup the the router, i set the WAN ip to the same IP of the device (192.168.2.1) and the same for the local ip. I've setup DNS (google dns for now) and after rebooting both devices nothing.. My pc has a network connection just no internet (because the router doesn't have an internet connection). I'm lost at this point.. what am i doing wrong?
