If I understand you correctly, you could do this:

Change the LAN IP of the wireless unit to 192.168.1.2.

Plug the ADSL modems ethernet port to the LAN side of the wireless router.

Plug your PC's into the remaining LAN ports on the wireless unit.

Essentially, this turns your wireless 'router' into a bridged access point.

You will have to disable DHCP on the wireless router, and let the ADSL
modem hand out addresses.

You will surf just fine, and you will be able to access the wireless
router for maintenance at 1.2, and the ADSL modem at 1.1

Hope this is what you were after.
