Request timed out and This IP address is not allowed for use on a port

Edit: I also attached the file in this post. Thank you so much for helping me!

Edit: I am also encountering a "This IP address is not allowed for use on a port" error whenever I am setting the default gateway of the WRT300N wireless router as 192.168.169.254, which is the IP address of the 2621XM router. And after I click the ok button, it sets the default gateway back to 0.0.0.0.

Here is the screenshot:

I understand that the reasons of a request timed out error are:

1. Not having the same default gateway assigned to the PC as the IP address of the connected interface of the router. 

2. Having a firewall blocking the request

I made sure to not do those but I am still having this error.

So here's the situation:

Devices can ping the wireless router IP address 192.168.169.170

But they cannot ping / it results to request timed out when pinging:

192.168.169.254 (Router0)

10.11.12.13 (Server0)

172.16.18.19 (Server1)

It results just fine if i remove the wireless router and just use the router0 to connect the devices to the server, but I need to demonstrate a wireless connection so i used the wrt300n. So I am guessing that there must be something wrong with what I did with the wireless router?

I also tried adding an ip route via a next hop. I entered the following commands in Router0:

Edit: I did not add ip route after redoing the entire file.

Edit: I also tried switching the 2621XM router to a 2911 router, and it worked! But the thing is, I also have to use 2621XM router along with the wireless router... What did i do wrong? Why is it working with the 2911 router but not with the 2621XM router? I added a NM-1FE2W Module to the 2621XM to connect another server, is it because of that module?
