Hi,
I wanted to connect a WRT54GS to the BEFSR41 routers and this is how Linksys support told me how to do it, hopefully it will give you an idea on how to configure your Belkin routers.

"Thank you for contacting Linksys Technical Support.

To connect the WRT54GS to the BEFSR41, use a straight through cable from the ethernet port of the BEFSR41 to one of the ethernet ports of the WRT54GS.

The wired and the wireless router should be on the same range of IP address for the computers behind them will communicate with each other. For example, if the wired router has an IP address of 192.168.1.1, change the IP address of the wireless router to 192.168.1.2 and then disable the DHCP server of the wireless router for the computers to get an IP address from the wired router and will then communicate with each other."
