Hello- I have a Linksys Broadband Firewall Router 4 port
switch / VPN endpoint. The braodband router is wired to
two computers. I also have a Linksys G Broadband
router. Recently a storm 'fried' the wireless router's ability
to use it in a wired capacity. But the wireless router still
puts out a wireless signal if you plug the modem into one
of the 4 ports on the back- the internet port is no good.

Is there a way to use the broadband firewall router and the
wireless g router in a series 'per say'- put another way can
I plug the wireless router into the broadband router just to
get a wireless signal in my house? I am not very technical
but any guidance or a step by step procedure would be
appreciated. r/ patrick

Is it correct, the LAN-Ports of the wireless router are ok and only the WAN (DSL) port is corrupt?

If so, you simply can use a network cable and connect the wireless router to one of the LAN ports of the Linksys Firewall router.

Then you have to configure the Linksys Firewall router as the standard gateway on all computers.
