OK, Let me explain what I've got and Using Now...
Right now All items are working as in I'm able to surf the web without any problems...
The main Router/Modem is an AT&T U-VERSE 3800 2Wire Modem. Off of that I've got one Apple Airport Extreme router in 5GHz N Mode hooked up with Cat5.
My second Airport Extreme is about 436.7ft from the Main Airport (mentioned Above) second is in 5Ghz N not connected with a cable. I set this up using my iMac Airport Utility. I followed the steps within airport utility to make a WDS network, this worked Flawlessly.
Once I got it all working I took the second router to it's location 436.7ft away.
(If your wondering how I know the exact distance between each router, I found a Great Tool within our County Assessors website that uses something like Google Maps but much more up close and personal overhead shots... and has a measuring tool you can use.)
Ok now back to my problem,
The second Airport Extreme has a 2Wire Router attached to it to CONVERT the signal back to 2.4GHz G mode since my Windows 7 Laptop doesn't have a Wireless N card built in...
I think this is the cause of my Issue. (Which I'm getting to... someday.) =)

I am using a HAVA Streaming Player to stream my DirecTV DVR over the Web. (this is much like the Slingbox)
When I'm in the Main Network that has the Actual AT&T Uverse 2wire router/Airport extreme, I can view my Hava Player within the network.
When I go to the 2nd Location and connect to the 2nd 2wire modem thats connected to the Airport Extreme to convert the wifi signal back to 2.4GHz G,
I can't View the HAVA Player...
I haven't tried using a Cat5 directly connected to the 2nd Airport to my laptop bypassing the 2.4GHz G 2wire router. I don't know as of now if I can view the HAVA player doing so...
So my question to you guys is,
How do I get the 2.4GHz 2wire 2nd location router to be on the same network as the main location 2wire modem/router?
