I've set up a few cameras around the house and I'm trying to square away the networking side of it.
So I have my primary router (router A) with a few VLANS set up for various things, and my laptop connects to the main VLAN. I'm fairly comfortable playing with the settings on this router (Cisco Rv215).
Then I have my security network on router B, which contains cameras and a dedicated recording PC. Router B is an old Linksys WRT-54GL running an old version of DDWRT. I havent messed with that in quite some time.
I have a few objectives:
For now I'm only concerned with 1. What's the best way to do this? DMZ on router B to expose the pc to router A? Is there another way? As usual I know enough here to be dangerous....

I have a few objectives:
- Connect to the recording PC via RDP from my laptop. Normally the pc will not have internet access, but I may occasionally want it for updates etc. I don't want the cameras to have internet access ever.
- VPN into router A and access the recording PC as I would from home.
