Connecting the Router to Your Existing Router
Linksys recommends that you replace your existing router with the Broadband Router with 2 Phone
Ports. However, if you would like to keep your existing router because it has wireless capability or
other features, then you can use the following instructions to connect the Broadband Router with 2
Phone Ports to your existing router, while keeping your wired PCs connected to your existing router.
For example, the following connection diagram shows the Broadband Router with 2 Phone Ports
