Topic: Firewall/Router by pass to Chillispot

Hello guys i have a small issue trying to setup a router down the line after the chillispot router. Here is an example

Router A (Chilispot router)
eth0 192.168.1.1
eth1 192.168.182.0

Router B

eth0 192.168.182.5 (assigned via chillispot from Router A)
eth1 192.168.21.1 ( Clients Subnet )
eth2 192.168.219.1 ( Clients Subnet )

Router B get its inernet from the chillispot router A and provides the same to the two subnets 192.168.21.0 and 192.168.219.0

But router B cannot provide internet to its client unless it logs in to chillispot on router A, and there after clients for router B are connected too. But i don't want that.

My question is where do i configure the settings so that Router B has direct access to the internet but its clients have to log in via chillispot in Router A.

i have tried PREROUTING in Router B but still couldn't achive this or may be am using the wrongiptable rules....

set Router B as bridge , do not enable DHCP or chillispot.

Thanks a lot *************. Thats shades some light on my side.
Router B is on centos 5.2. Just wondering whether u can suggest for me a bridging utility to use  for the same. I believe there are several out there.
