  • How exactly is the cable modem connected to both the router and the switch? The cable modem has more than one ethernet interface?

  • As it is, you're trying to get 2 IP addresses from one service; that's not going to work. Are you trying to set up a DMZ? If so, the best way would be to add a 3rd NIC to the Asus & hang the switch from that. Then you can control access to each network individually, whilst providing DHCP from the Asus to both independent structures. [That's assuming DD-WRT can do that, I'm not experienced with it]
