Run a line from the BEFW11S4 *LAN* side to the BEFSR41.
Configure the BEFW11S4 to remove the default route that points
through the WAN, and instead have it point to the LAN. You can
deconfigure the WAN side and address it through it's LAN address.

That's pretty much all you have to do. The wireless side of the
BEFW11S4 is on the LAN, and the BEFW11S4 is happy to relay signals
as between the wired ports and unwired ports. Let the BEFSR41 router
handle all the NAT.

I have a fairly similar configuration.
