Can I add (chain) a wifi router and ether net switch onto VM hub as below in my diagram?

In this situation there would be two active wifi connections, one in the loft and one on the vm hub

I can't figure how to set up the WiFi router. I tried disabling dhcp on the to router and giving it a fixed ip of 192.168.0.50 but that didn't work. I plugged the VM ethernet into the Wan port and PC into a LAN port.

I also tried plugging the VM Ethernet into a LAN port and the PC into a LAN port too , but that failed to work.

Every time I changed the router it would screw up the VM hub too so I had to keep powering it off.

Any ideas?
