There is no problem doing double Nat but you should be able to set it up just a

- turn off DHCP on your airport.
- make sure the LAN network is the same subnet as your current LAN.
- assign an unique address to the airport router within your current LAN subnet
- make sure the wireless Mac's gateway address is pointing to your current gateway.
