I don't think you need a router between your wired & wirless connection. The WRT54GL router should do all the routing functions for your network (allocate IPs, decide what traffic goes to the internet, etc). If you try and use another router, then you might get into all sorts of trickery since most routers are expecting to forward traffic from their LAN port to the WAN port. I think you are going to have to experiment with your edimax bridge point modes.
