Correct and the way I specified is the ONLY way to do it and that relies on the ability to put in two IP's onto the laptop as you do NOT have 2 network cards... But as the modem relies on DHCP it just can not be done...
Either buy another network card (usb/pcmcia) for the laptop and then issue one to the modem and the other to the PC/switch...or go buy a router...or accept that with your current hardware you can not do it...
If you do use two network cards then you ONLY set the IP and SUBNET on the local 192.168.x.x card and not DNS or GATEWAY, that will allow you then to connect via the internet via the dns/gateway set up by the modem on the other card...
