How to setup multiple wireless

I have a Westell A90-750015-07 wireless modem/router
I also have a Linksys wireless router
I would like to know how to setup the Linksys wireless router to add extended range to my existing westell wireless router
Verizon tells me this not possible but I read if you disable DHCP and assign a static IP address and subnet it will work
Any help will be greatly appreciated

Connect the linksys via one of its LAN ports (don't use the WAN port). Disable DHCP on the linkksys. Set the linksys to have an IP address on the Westell LAN (perhaps give the linksys a LAN IP of 192.168.1.100).

Use the same SSID, the same key, the same encryption method. Set the linksys and the Westell to use different WiFi channels (to minimize interference).

That should work.
