How do I access devices on a router externally?
I have a wireless router connected to a Linksys router (in port 1). If I were able to access that Linksys router externally (by knowing my home IP address), how would I gain access to my wireless router? In other words, how would I rout to my other devises on my main router, etc.?

1. Yeah, this is why you don't want multiple routers on your LAN.
You really should have bought a wireless access point instead of a wireless router, because now you have to traverse two NAT firewalls to get to anything on your wireless network.
If there's any way to disable the NAT, DHCP server, and make the wireless router just a wireless access point, I would suggest doing that to remove the added level of complexity having more than one router. If the wireless router is new, I'd suggest taking it back and getting a wireless access point instead.
