Should I connect both routers LAN to WAN one to each of the 2 ports on the WiFi modem? Leave DHCP on for the WiFi modem and turn DHCP off for both routers? My WiFi modem is 192.168.0.1. A router is 192.168.1.1 and B router auto changed to 10.0.0.1.

Correct the C3000 should have the DHCP on while the other 2 have it off and you want to connect from the LAN ports of the C3000 to the WAN ports of the other 2 routers.
