Cable Modem with Switch + Wireless router

[kaizersose]

Should the switch be plugged in downstream or upstream of the wireless router? I currently have a Comcast cable modem (Motorola) with a D-Link DIR-655 attached to it. It works great and all that jazz but all four of the wired ports are full and I want to add a switch to the network.

I should add that I have the DIR-655 doing port forwarding and some QoS as well and would like to keep those settings and have them apply to all of the connections. thanks for your help.

The switch should plug into one of the switch ports on the wireless router
