You should be able to safely carry on using your DG834G... You could just use the Airport Extreme as a wireless access point and leave the DHCP/DNS/routing to the DG834G, or you could put it in bridge mode and devolve those tasks to the Airport Extreme... You could buy something like a Draytek Vigor 120 but it's not really necessary...
