ACCESSING WNDR4300 FROM MY C3700
How do i access my NVR SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM,,,,, That is connected to my WNDR4300 router,,,,,,which is connected to my C3700 router/modem..... from my COMPUTER which is connected directctly to my C3700 ROUTER /MODEM..... They are connected by the YELLOW internet port on both devices . Before i upgraded my modem, I had one network on the WNDR4300. My computer was connected to that router and it was connected to a standard modem .Now I have the C3700 which has 2 ports on thr back and its OWN network. So now I have 2 Networks and 2 routers. The internet is working fine .

"WNDR4300" or "WNDR4300v2"? Firmware version?

Since you've replaced your old (unspecified) "my modem" with a
modem+router, the straightforward way would be to configure the WNDR4300
as a wireless access point, rather than as the full-function router it
currently is. That should eliminate your two-router problems. Visit
http://netgear.com/support , put in your (actual) model number, and look
for Documentation. Get the User Manual. Look for "Wireless AP".- GSPRODUCTAspirant
Its a WNDR4300v2

Its setup as a wireless access point. I have devices wired and wireless connected to it . They are able to access the internet . When i got the C3700 i simply unplugged my computer from the old router, plugged it up to the new C3700, set up the C3700 and then connnected the wndr4300v2 to it via the 2 yellow ports on the rearand it worked.

I'm lost. Your original post said "I have 2 Networks and 2
routers." What, exactly, does that mean to you? What are the IP
addresses of these devices?What, exactly, does "It[']s setup as a wireless access point" mean to
you? Did you do what it says at "Use the Router as a Wireless Access
Point" in the WNDR4300v2 User Manual, or what?> [...] When i got the C3700 i simply unplugged my computer from the old

as your (unspecified) "my modem"?

I'll assume that that means that you ran a cable between one of the
C3700 LAN Ethernet ports and the WNDR4300v2 WAN/Internet port.So, what, exactly, does not work now?
