Okay so I have a 2 routers and 1 router/moden mix.

The two routers have a WAN port and 4 LAN ports.

The modem/router has 4 LAN ports.

What I did was connect a cat cable to a LAN port from the modem to the WAN port on one of the routers. This router worked fine both wireless and wired. What I did next was connected another cat cable from one the LAN ports from the router into the WAN of the other router.

I want it to look like this:
moden --> router1 --> router2 --> Internet

Router2 however wouldn't give an internet connection neither wireless nor wired. Is this because the second router isn't connected directly with the modem?
