So you have it like this?

MODEM > Router
                ^
          > Router?

That makes no sense... You could just stack it... Connect Router 1 to modem, then router 2 to connect to an output on router 1... Router 3 connects to router 2.

Why are you doing this? How many computers you networking?

You may possibly need a more sifisticated router e.g cisco 1700 series or 2600 series routers with to ethernet interfaces so you can route between the two networks.
