Good day to you all!

Okay, it has been discussed in theory, now can someone help me in practice? 
I did get a dual WAN router (D-link di-lb604) for about 99 dollars U.S. for 
my Comcast (cable internet) and DSL.

Now, the trick!  Using my Linksys wireless router/gateway, I've tried it by 
disabling NAT and DHCP on the D-link and I can only get Internet access via 
wire.  I can't seem to get wireless internet.  I have tried the WAN port on 
the wireless to a computer port on the D-link and that doesn't work and I am 
now trying computer port to computer port.

There is no documentation or help with D-link except a computer wired to 
their hub.  No WiFi solution is offered.  Do you think I should dump the 
router and just get a simple WiFi Access Point?  Do any of you have any tips 
on getting a wireless router to act as an access point to a wired router?

I know this is a tall order, but a number of you have the savvy to help!

Thanks in advance.
