Port Forwarding with 2 Routers

    I've got a bit of a problem. I'm currently behind 2 routers at the moment.

    Cable Box > LinkSys Router > NetGear Router > My Computer.

    I'm not entirely sure how I should go about forwarding my ports because of the way my IP is with each router. On my LinkSys router, my IP address is 192.168.1.1, and on my NetGear, the IP address is 192.168.0.1. I can't change the 0 to a 1, or the 1 to a 0 because the only part of the IP address I can change when forwarding ports on both router configurations are the last digits before the port.

    What steps do I need to take in order to forward the ports for both routers?

    The first thing I would do is change either the netgear's IP address to 192.168.1.2 or change the linksys's IP address to 192.168.0.2. This will solve the IP address problem.

    If your still having trouble forwarding the ports, you might try puting your computer on the DMZ in your netgear router. You should be able to find the DMZ configuration through the netgear web configuration utility.

    Well, I'd like to change the NetGear's IP address so that it's a 1 instead of a 0, I just don't know the steps I need to take to do so. x:
