Is it possible and if so how do I connect 2 linksys wrt54g wireless routers to a belkin wired router without having one of them set up as a repeater or turning dhcp off? I want each wireless router to be a separate network, one for web surfing for the family and the other for downloads. Any help would be appreciated.
 
give them different IP addys and different SSID names. You will then have two SSID names on the same subnet.
 
I tried that, I left one as 192.168.1.1 and changed the other to 192.168.1.2 but I can't get the second to connect, it doesn't seem to be getting any info from the belkin.
 
Maybe make sure the router and each of the wireless routers has its own subnet?

Router: 192.168.1.1
Wifi: 192.168.2.1
Wifi: 192.168.3.1

therefore 3 different networks???

Not exactly sure what your trying to accomplish... one of those might be acting as a router and causing issues in itself...

are you setting up the public ip as 192.168.1.xxx for each one and then its internal DHCP to 192.168.2.xxx and 192.168.3.xxx ???

You have 3 routers, all by default will enable DHCP. Turn off DHCP on the WRT54G and let the Belkin handle it. Then, make sure all the IPs are different. Then set the wireless SSID's differently.
 
belkin:

Wan - DHCP from ISP
LAN - 192.168.1.1

static routes:
192.168.2.0/24 -> 192.168.1.2
192.168.3.0/24 -> 192.168.1.3


linksys 1:

Wan - 192.168.1.2
LAN - 192.168.2.1
def gw - 192.168.1.1

linksys 2:

Wan - 192.168.1.3
LAN - 192.168.3.1
def gw - 192.168.1.1
