Just connect the non-wireless router (from a lan port) into the WAN connection in the other router. Set up the wireless router to use a different dhcp range that the other router and the wireless router will get it's network information from the WAN. Very easy.

Go buy a Linksys Wireless Access Point like the WAP54G, and simply plug a cable from the ethernet port on the WAP54G into one of the ports on the other linksys router. If you don't need file sharing, that is your best option. Feel free to email me for a more advanced answer, and if you need file sharing. I actually am going through 3 routers, so it really is not difficult to do.

buy a Linksys Wirless Router\4 ports switch.... at any Best Buy or Circuit City,,, or computer store...
This way you can use just one, box...
Depending on the router, you may not be able to daisy chain unless its a Router\switch.. in that case take a cable and plug it into the switch then plug into the Internet port on the wirless....

Use the Uplink port on the first router to connect a cable to port 1 on the second router.
