go under the router configuration where you can forward and mask ports. The only option for what you suggested from what i see is ither
a) you get 3 routers one wired which has input from modem, and it branches out to 2 seperate routers, i doubt this would help at all
b) you can pay double your cable/dsl bill(assuming ur not using dial up) and get 2 modems hooked up.
