How do I use a wireless router as a switch?

Hi guys,

Thought this would be pretty straightforward but alas not. Just replaced my Speedtouch 580i with a Netgear DG834. Great.

I'd like to use the Speedtouch as a switch - with an ethernet cable running from the Netgear to the Speedtouch, and then 3 machines plugged into the Speedtouch.

Is this possible, and if so, how do I set it up as simply connecting it up that way and turning off the DHCP server on the Speedtouch didnt seem to work!

Thanks.
