No no, I was calling the maneuver remedial, not you. You may or may not be, That's none of my business.
If you have two routers, and one's wireless, why not just use the one. Netgear's actually a terrible brand since I've seen then croak (Read: Warp their cases) and cause bottlenecks. Belkin may not be bad, but try to keep it to one device if at all possible.
I'm not going back to the beginning of this thread (I'm feeling lazy this morning). But if you are changing routers then your chain has to look like this. ALL IP # are just examples
Modem (outside world) Connects to > Router 1.
Router 1 has an outside IP (199.166.1.1) it creates an internal network IP group (192.168.1.X) then it would connect to router 2's WAN port.
Router 2 looks to router 1 as it's outside connection and creates another internal network IP (192.168.2.x) with it's gateway being 192.168.1.1 (the IP of router 1).
Router 3 connects to router 2 (192.168.2.1) as it's gateway and creates another internal network on (192.168.3.x) etc...etc...etc..
So if a computer is connecting to router 3 it'll have 192.168.3.1 as it's gateway and an ip of 192.168.3.x
If it's connected to router 2 it'll have a gateway of 192.168.2.1 and an IP of 192.168.2.x
Keep the subnet on every machine at 255.255.255.0. Depending on your routing rules computers on different routers may or may not be able to talk to each other according to your routers various firewall rules.

Thanks for the info.
