Uverse router/modem problem

I decided to take the plunge and go with the U-verse internet, phone etc. because of the speed upgrade and the savings I would get. As you already know, U-verse needs it's own modem/router combo. I asked the salesman if I could keep my same router and just use the modem part of the U-verse system and they said yes, no problem. Well, problem. The guy that hooked up my system was not sure how to connect to two together to make the U-verse just the modem and my modem/router to be the router. Well, I am not sure how to do this either. I have a Netgear DGN3500 and the U-verse one is a Motorola NVG510. I have to take the phone line and go into the Motorola and out into the Netgear. I can't get into either router now to check anything out. I do get internet so I am at least okay in that respect but some of my links to my lighting system, and other things don't work properly now I suppose because it is not set up right. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Just let me know what other info you would need to help me with this little mess. Thanks.
