Iron wire then.
Connecting a switch to WAN (your ISP) is a highly unconventional way, I have heard no one else doing that, it means clients connected to the switch are in your ISP's net, wifi-router's clients would in be your LAN, and there is no way clients in two different sub nets can communicate. The routers are designed to work between networks.
And as a side note, when you are working in someone other's net, be careful what to do, that you don't burn your fingers.
Consumer grade routers usually have 4 rj-45 ports, one is to connect to the WAN, three for you own usage, if that is not enough, you need a switch. But then all your clients would be 192.168.x.x network, and I, and many others, like to sync between laptops, pcs, phones and access for example a printer which is in the same network.
Perhaps you would need to buy some network-cables, cat6 cables would be most suitable, cat5 cables are cheaper, but then you would loose some speed.
Your router seems to be configured to work out of the box, just change the router's password, and wifi-password and you are good to proceed.
