Your hAP ac Lite probably comes with "Quick Set" set to "Home AP Dual". This makes eth1 the WAN connection (Internet) and the other ether ports and WLAN interfaces are the LAN network. The hAP ac Lite provides DHCP leases for the LAN from the bridge. (DHCP server on the bridge.)
If this different IP range is not what you want, you have to convert the hAP ac Lite to non-routing AP.
There are several ways to get there.
1. Alter the "Home AP Dual" config not using Quick Set.
Add eth1 as port to the bridge. Move the DHCP client from eth1 to the bridge. Stop the DHCP server on the bridge, All eth ports are now the same LAN.
or
2. Change the Quick Set to "WISP AP" in bridge mode. But WISP AP only sets one WLAN interface. The other WLAN must be added after Quick Set.
Either way there is no single Quick Set that is fully satisfying your requirements. You can alter Quick Sets to be what you want, but never go back to Quick Set if any change is made. Quickset only functions on an unaltered factory default.
I think what you want is a hAP ac Lite, with eth and WLAN being all one and the same LAN network, where the LHG is the main gateway (as router, DHCP server, DNS forwarder)
A fast test could be to stop the DHCP server on the hAP ac Lite, and connect eth2 (any but not eth1) to the LHG. Clients on eth3-5 and WLAN will function, hAP ac Lite is connectable via Winbox MAC Neighbors until an IP address is set on the bridge.
