I have a Netgear WGT624v2 Wireless Firewall Router connected to my Cable modem. I would like to connect a Linksys BEFSR41 Cable/DSL Firewall Router to the netgear to function solely as a second router to allow two additional computers to network and gain access to the internet. How do I configure both routers to allow this. Also, I need games such as EverQuest to work properly on all computers. All computers run Windows XP Pro. Thank you

Plug the Linksys into the Netgear using a LAN port and a crossover cable. Disable the DHCP server in the Linksys first before connecting it into the Netgear router. DO NOT USE THE WAN (INTERNET) CONNECTION ON THE LINKSYS!
