I was able to do the following a with Linkys E900 but the Linksys E900 does not have a traffic/usage meter like Netgear does, and that is what I need to have in my downstream/2nd router so that I can view monthly traffic/usage going through ONLY the 2nd router.
1) So, I have my satelitte modem > WNR2000vs netgear wifi router( 1st ) and need specific directions on how to add a 2nd Netgear WNR2000vs wifi router( 2nd) after( downstream ) from the 1st router but NOT as access point.
..1a) with linksys the config was ethernet cable from 1st router LAN port > 2nd router WAN/internet port and presume that will be no differrent with a Netgear 2d router.
2) I do NOT want the 2nd Netgear router to be an access point, or repeater or extender, because I tried that with the Linksys but that locked me out from getting getting into it to see the 2nd routers data/infor, so not sure what I'm doing is labled as, but I think it is called a shared network or a seperate router network.
3) Linksys Cisco Connect made it easy to do this operation but netgear manauls do not have any feature like this.
4) Again, my need is to have a 2nd netgear router( downstream aft the 1st one ) and will allow me to go in and see its traffic/usage going through ONLY that 2nd, downstream( after the 1st ) router .
