The other option is connect everything on your home network to the N600 (using its wifi and ethernet LAN). Then connect the WAN port of the N600 to a LAN port of the ISP router. But the N600 is really old (10 years I think), and your ISP router is likely much faster.
Back-to-back routing works ok, but you do need to do a couple of extra steps when port forwarding.
