How to connect 2 routers to a dsl modem and router

J

I am currently trying to connect a lan to our wan connection using two
routers. One is a linksys and the other is a wireless netgear. The dsl is a
netopia router. How can I configure the two routers to see each other over
the wan? Can I identify specific routes through the wan for the routers to
communicate with or what? I would appreciate any suggestions...... Thanks

By default, Router is one way traffic. You can do router2>>>>router1>>>>DLS modem>>>>internet.. But if you want to access router2 from router1, you may want to setup DMZ or open ports on the router2.
