Port forwarding from DSL modem to wireless router on to PC.

At the moment I have my Zyxel Prestige DSL modem hooked into one of the
bridge ports (Not internet port) at the back of my WRT54G. I then
forward my ports from the modem directly to my pc. This works fine but
the disadvantage is that i'm bypassing the powerful firewall in my
WRT54G which I do not want to do. Is it possible to connect the DSL
modem directly into the Internet port on the WRT54G and forward a port
from the modem to the Wireless router and then on again to the PC and
thus use the WRT54G as the main firewall.

Thanks in advance.

Which model Zyxel Prestige DSL modem? The 660HW includes an excellent
firewall.
