So this is what I have done so far. I've ran my network cable from the Cisco unit (plugged in the '1' slot) and ran it upstairs.

I hookup my Dlink to my computer and turned off the uPnP and disabled the DHCP thing. I then changed my Router address from .0.1 to .0.11. I then unplugged my router from my laptop and hooked it up to the network cable and from my Cisco and plugged it into the 'Internet' slot.

I know I'm doing something wrong because when I try to access my DLink using the new address, I just get an error message. I also tried changing the SSID to the same network as my Cisco and that messed everything up and I had to reset my Cisco to get it working again.

What am I doing wrong?
