your TP link router will assume all responsibility for routing/switching once you put the shub in modem mode and it will have a fixed ip of 192.168.100.1 as it is a modem. It used 192.168.0.1 when it routing mode because that is the convention for assigning ip addresses for routers in class C subnets; either that or the last available ip (.254). Anyways, you don't need to worry about what subnet and mask you want to use on your router for your lan because your TP link router will automatically detect the modem and forward all internet traffic to it as it picks it up as it's default gateway.

Once you have put the shub in modem mode it requires no further configuartion, everything else is done on your router. You want to be configuring your which subnet you are going to use, your wireless ssid, encryption and some static dns servers like google amongst other things.
