Not a problem at all Peter.
Anyways.... You CAN have (I think anyways) the D-Link router get its address via DHCP, however, I would recommending giving it a static address. This way, if in the future you need to access the D-Links config page with minimal impact on the network, you already know the address to get to it.
I would say, make the address for the D-Link 192.168.1.253 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
now I am rather particular in the topology of networks, so I would say you use the same port on each router for connecting them.... port 1 on each side, or port 4 on each side. That way, if you have to do anything with the network, you aren't left guessing which cable is for what device. (I know, doesn't really matter in the case of a home network, more of a business related thing.)
Once you get here.... you should be good to go, simply connect the two, and (I recommend) enable wireless security on the D-Link.
