#46317 Hello :D theoretically, we have two modes of ESP8266. First is Station which ESP will connect to wifi and provide internet for Arduino. Second is Access Point which plays as a router for other devices. So, in your case, you should sett ESP8266 module as a station. And as you said, you use AT command set so you can use "AT+CWMODE=1" to make ESP become a station or "AT+CWMODE=3" to make ESP become both station and access point.

Hope to see you success ^^!

If you connected your ESP to the router, and the router has internet connection, then your ESP has internet connection. Now use AT+CIPSTAR, AT+CIPSEND, ... to connect to servers on internet.
