Default Wireless bridge problem

I have a problem with wifi bridging.

My home web:

First LAN 192.168.0.*:
PrimaryRouter.192.168.0.1 - thomson TWG870U - connected to internet throught WAN port - works ok
TowerPC.198.168.0.5 - connected to PrimaryRouter through Ethernet cable - works ok
Laptop.192.168.0.* - connected to PrimaryRouter through Wifi - works ok

Second LAN 192.168.1.*:
SecondaryRouter.192.168.1.1 - tplink TL-WR841N - connected to PrimaryRouter through WIFI Bridge WDS (Status: running)
Laptop.192.168.1.2 - connected to SecondaryRouter through Ethernet Cable


what I want to achieve:
I want to be able to connect from Laptop.192.168.1.2 to internet and also to other 192.168.0.* computers

I have tried a lot of different configurations. I will describe the last one in which I am able to ping from Laptop.192.168.1.2 to PrimaryRouter.192.168.0.1.

My solution:
PrimaryRouter LAN IP Address is: 192.168.0.1
PrimaryRouter DHCP server enabled
PrimaryRouter WAN settings are ok - internet and intranet on First LAN is working properly

SecondaryRouter LAN IP Address is: 192.168.1.1
SecondaryRouter has WBS status: Running
SecondaryRouter Advanced routing - Destination Network: 192.168.0.0, Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1 (I do not think that it should be added but without this one I cannot ping from Laptop.192.168.1.2 to PrimaryRouter.192.168.0.1.
SecondaryRouter DHCP server disabled
SecondaryRouter WAN settings Dynamic IP - not set (WAN port is unplugged)
SecondaryRouter Wireless settings the same that those in PrimaryRouter
SecondaryRouter SPI Firewall disabled

My Secondary LAN Laptop has Static IP: 192.168.1.2 (if I set up to obtain address automatically than it cannot obtain address)
My Secondary LAN Laptop has Static Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1


What I can do with above settings:
Ping from Laptop.192.168.1.2 to SecondaryRouter.192.168.1.1
Ping from Laptop.192.168.1.2 to PrimaryRouter.192.168.0.1 (It proves that there is wifi bridge)

Ping from PrimaryRouter.192.168.0.1 to Google (First LAN works ok)
Ping from PrimaryRouter.192.168.0.1 to TowerPC.198.168.0.5 (First LAN works ok)

Ping from SecondaryRouter.192.168.1.1 to PrimaryRouter.192.168.0.1


What I cannot do but I would like to achieve:
Ping from Laptop.192.168.1.2 to Google
Ping from Laptop.192.168.1.2 to TowerPC.198.168.0.5
Ping from SecondaryRouter.192.168.1.1 to TowerPC.198.168.0.5

I know that after everything is set up correctly I should turn off static IP on Laptop.192.168.1.2 but when I do it my Laptop will not get IP address.

Another additional information is that when I tracert:
from Laptop.192.168.1.2 to PrimaryRouter.192.168.0.1 then ouptup is:
Laptop.192.168.1.2 -> SecondaryRouter.192.168.1.1 -> PrimaryRouter.192.168.0.1

but when I tracert:
from Laptop.192.168.1.2 to TowerPC.198.168.0.5 then ouptup is:
Laptop.192.168.1.2 -> SecondaryRouter.192.168.1.1 -> Destination host unreachable

and when I tracert:
from Laptop.192.168.1.2 to 173.194.35.178 (Google) then 192.168.1.1 reports that Destination host is unreachable

and when I tracert:
from SecondaryRouter.192.168.1.1 to TowerPC.198.168.0.5 it even do not jump to PrimaryRouter.192.168.0.1

can anyone help me?
