So it needs to go Cable Modem -> Router it likes -> Other stuff.
Still seems convoluted.

Sounds like what I am encoutering with now. I was hoping someone can confirm this with me. If this is true, I will try cable modem -> rounter -> branch to several more routers.
Thanks.

It's because DSL can be set up as 2 56k pipes.
The simple way to think about it is it's two separate broadband connections.
The switch before the routers was directing traffic from the two routers to their respective lines.
