D-Link 615 as switch or 2nd router for another 2 PCs from Superhub

Hi,

I have a D-Link 615, but would like to use it as a switch or maybe a router not sure.

I have my VM Superhub, and they from that a ethernet wire goes to another room where there was 1 PC, but there is 2 now and I would like to get both on the net, at current there is only 1 PC on the net which the ethernet plugs staright into the PC

How would I this up?

or turn off DHCP on the DIR-615 and plug everything in. Done.
