As pointed out by others, what you have above is not going to work.

The top diagram is where you need to be.  What you have also exposes your
Windblows boxes to internet hacking.  You need to use the Linux box as your
internet connection and firewire box.  Something like this maybe:


			internet
			   |
			   |
			   |
		      eth0 - Linux
		      eth1 - Linux
			   |
			   |
			   |
		    multiport switch
			   |
			   |

     static  static  static  static  static	|
       IP      IP      IP      IP      IP  	|
						|
					   wireless box
						.

	----------------------------------------
	.	.	.	.	.
	.	.	.	.	.
	.	.	.	.	.
	.	.	.	.	.
	wireless IP addresses that are DHCP


Does this make any sense?
