I have 2 routers. I need to relay port into the other router.

Internet--->Router1 192.168.15.1----->Router2 192.168.1.1 to my computer 192.168.1.108.

I have port forwarding already for Router 2. What settings do I need to use on Router 1?
 
That's an ugly setup(from a networking standpoint). I highly recommend eliminating one of the routers. It'll eliminate a lot of the little problems and oddities you may run into.
 
this may be a retarded question but couldnt u just eliminate one of the routers and replace it w/ a hub or a switch?
 
Yeah..2x routers...double NAT'ing...yuck! Not to mention P2P..yuck. But that's another matter.
 
I can understand not having two NATs during a file sharing situation, but I run two natted routers. One is my main LAN and the other is my wireless rounter that I dont want it connecting to other portions of my wired side.

The problem is that NATing breaks end-to-end connectivaty, there are some work arounds sure but most are not pretty. When you double up the NAT even the work arounds start to fall apart.
