You need to disable a couple of services in the modem in order for it work with the router. You currently have two layers of Network Address Translation which can cause plenty of headaches as it's translating addresses twice over, so disable it in the modem. You also have two DHCP services running, the two services will argue with each other when assigning addresses.
