I've got switch into switch here which works just as it should. I'm thinking DHCP as well but I'd suggest to the OP that you start with a minimal setup.

modem -> switch -> pc

see if you can get that working with a valid IP and 'net access. Once that's in place add a 2nd pc to the switch and see if you can see the shares across the switch.

Once that's done and the kit is all proven you can rebuild the whole rig in stages.
