Ok, I was having issues with my cameras taking too much bandwidth on my network.
I was not interested in lowering image quality or FPS.
I decided to put my cameras on my their own subnet operating on a new physical wireless router.
My config thus far is:
Apple AirPort Extreme g5 connected to cable modem. Netgear WNDR3300 with its internet port connected to a regular port on the AirPort, with its gateway set to the AirPort's IP, and DNS matching AirPort's DNS.
This config is allowing me to use the mobile app. BUT! I can not use the web browser applet to log into the DNR-202L as it appears it can not see the subnet the other wifi operates on.
Is there some port forwarding or some kind of settings I need to put in to these routers to allow this type of traffic?

Try changing the 3300 router to a wired AP instead of running it as a router. Your in a double NAT condition. The cameras and DNR-202L should be on the same subnet for best practices.
Be sure port forward and upnp port forward is enabled on ALL cameras.
-
I don't want any of the camera traffic hitting my highest level subnet unless I am remote viewing though.
The 202L is on the same subnet as the cameras right now.
-
I I presume the PC your using is on the main host sub net. The PC will need to be on the 2ndary subnet I believe to gain access.
Try putting the DNR-202L IP addressed into the 3300s DMZ...

I ended up turning off DHCP and some services on the 3300, and instead of connecting the 3300 to the AirPort via the yellow Wan port, I just connected LAN to LAN, so now the 3300's clients are reaching out to the AirPort's DHCP and the 3300 has essentially become a wifi enabled switch instead of a router.

Glad you got it working. Enjoy.
