   Hi There,
   Trying to read between the lines it sounds like you want to enable ICS on the computer with the Sprint ISP and follow JohnWill's procedure (the ICS PC is the primary router). Do not use a cross-over cable for this application. The LAN address of the NIC connected to the secondary router will be set to 192.168.0.1 by the ICS enabling.
   
   Connecting two SOHO broadband routers together.
   
   Configure the IP address of the secondary router to be in the same subnet as the primary router, but out of the range of the DHCP server in the primary router. For instance DHCP server addresses 192.168.0.2 through 192.168.0.100, I'd assign the secondary router 192.168.0.254 as it's IP address.
   
   Disable the DHCP server in the secondary router.
   
   Setup the wireless section just the way you would if it was the primary router.
   
   Connect from the primary router's LAN port to one of the LAN ports on the secondary router. If there is no uplink port and neither of the routers have auto-sensing ports, use a cross-over cable. Leave the WAN port unconnected!

   Also, you might want to download the installation manual direct from NETGEAR from here:
