What I think you are doing is using NAT between your 2 networks. Below
is my approximation of your system patched together from your comments...
1. You have the router that is connected to your ISP. It is performing
NAT and handing out a private network to anything on its LAN and WIFI
interfaces.
2. You have a second router that has its Internet/WAN interface
connected to one of the LAN interfaces on the first router. It is also
performing NAT and handing out a second private network on its LAN and
WIFI interfaces.

You WOULD be able to connect via SSH from a device connected to the
router listed in point 2 to a device connected to the router listed in
point 1. You WOULD NOT be able to connect from the device connected to
the router listed in point 2 FROM a device connected to the router
listed in point 1 due to NAT.

There are ways to get beyond this and only have one network utilizing 2
SOHO routers. I would always recommend for anyone who has limited
network experience to only use one router and use a combination of
switches and access points to extend wired LANs and provide better WIFI
coverage. If the setup is how I described, you may have other issues due
to DOUBLE NAT that you just have not recognized yet.
