Two Connected Routers -UPC Cisco & Billion Wifi Connection query

    Hi
    I have gone UPC with broadband, tv, phone package.

    I still have my Billion Wifi router which I have connected to the UPC Cisco router.

    I have my NAS's and Wifi Security cameras off my Billion. My NAS recording of the cameras is fine but now my remote Internet "Cloud" recording is not. I have reconfigured the DYNDNS entry to the new UPC setting but it isn't detecting the cameras through the UPC into the Billion.

    Both routers have there own IP range but I wondering if I am best to consolidation and should I (can I) set up the Billion as a sub set of the Cisco router?

    Any advice on the best way to set up the two routers together?
    (aside they are in different parts of the house connected by powered ethernet and the UPC is located in ideal place nor does in have enough ports to connect the NAS's and everything else , hence why I'd like to keep the two routers.

    OR Should I simply bridge the CISCO router as per the sticky on this thread to solve all above?

    Thanks in advance for any advice.
