Linksys WRT54G and a BEFSR81

Hi,
I have a Linksys WRT54G and a BEFSR81 that I would like to use together. Is there anyway to connect these to routers so I can have wireless access and still utilize my wired network.
I have 8 wired devices (5 PC's + 1 Xbox 360 + 1 PS2 + 1 Print server) and I have 3 wireless devices

The WRT54G came with the new cable modem install, (I switched from DSL), I would like to put the WRT54G after the cable modem and connect the BEFSR81 to the WRT54G. I have tried setting this up and I can't get the devices connected to the BEFSR81 to see the internet.

Can this be done?
What settings need changed?

Thanks for the help.
James

I got it going.
Had to NOT use the WAN port on the second router device.

All is working great and WOW, the coverage the wireless offers is unbelievable! I still have excellent reception at greater than 400'!

Life is so much "funner" when all works well...lol

Since your wireless is transmitting that well, make sure you have good security settings.

Yes indeed.

I have WPA2 enabled with a strong alpha-numeric password and SSID broadcast turned off. I'm thinking about using MAC filtering.
