Attempting to daisy chain 2 wireless Modem Routers together

Just trying to daisy chain my o2 Thomson TG585v7 to  my Netgear DG834Gv3 so that I can possibly have 1 upstairs and 1 downstairs, in order to boost the wifi range and have more physical ethernet connections.)

By using the Netgear as the modem, restricting the DNS services to 192.168.0.63 (as the o2 box starts at 192.168.0.64) and disabling the DNS server on the o2 box, it worked.

Test 1 ports 1 on both units were used to daisy chain but port 1 (NG) to port 2 (Thomson) works fine as well!

    Only problem is that I can access the Netgear router at its default 192.168.0.1 but not the Thomson (default of 192.168.1.254)
