Since my normal router has to manage three computers on wireless and one computer wired, I'm breaking the wireless to two routers.
The Master Plan said:
  • Internet
    • Router1 (WAN Input) (DCHP on)
      • Computer 1, wired connection
        Router 2, wired connection
        Computer 2 Wireless
      Router2 (LAN Input) (DCHP off)
      • Computer 3 Wireless
        Computer 4 Wireless
However I'm having incredible trouble setting up the second Router. I was able to begin to set it up once using the default connection (192.168.0.1, "admin", blank password), and as per instructions written down for me by a friend, I set about to change the Default Gateway from 192.168.1.1 to .1.2. However I'm not sure if Default Gateway was the number I changed, and now after almost an hour of relative frustration, I can't reconnect to the second Router, not on .0.1, .0.100, .1.2 or .1.200. IPconfig tells me that most certainly I am not totally connected to the Router even though it is physically connected, I've tried all four LAN ports and now am currently typing this after trying to connect to the second Router on a different computer with no success. The Router itself is a D-Link WBR-1310 with Firmware 4.16.
HALP ME :(

Solvéd.

I was being too hasty with the Reset button. Holding it for a few seconds instead of tapping it reset the settings, so now I have everything properly set up. Cheerio!
