Hi community, I have a problem I bought a Asus RT-N66U router to enhance my home's wifi capabilities because downloads were slow and streaming was difficult particularly when watching HD media so much buffering or crashing.

Here is my present setup I have an Arris TM602G/115 modem from the cable company, a SmartRG SR350N DSL router from the ISP company and the Asus RT-N66U router. Presently only the SmartRG and the Arris are connected. How do I connect the Asus to the SmartRG to get the best wifi performance and better coverage of the peripherals in the house, smart tv, computer, satellite receiver, android box and cellphone. I read something about bridging the Asus or using it as an extender. What are my options. I would like to take full advantage of the Asus router because of its goods specs when compared to the SmartRG dsl router. I would have replaced the SmartRG dsl router with the Asus router but it does not have a port for the internet cable.

I really appreciate any assistance that can be provided from this well learned community.
Thanks
