What is the model of your Modem? is it a modem router?
What model of Synology router? Do the router ports also support multi-gig speed?
Can you provide us with a diagram of the setup you made?
A setting may need to be chang on the router or a connection that needs to be corrected to get the WAN IP from the Modem.
Does your ISP provide you with a dynamic WAN? Your ISP should be able to help you out on getting your Modem connected to the router and provide an Internet connection.
The usual connection is Modem>Router>Switch. If you are connecting the Modem to the switch first the switch is getting the IP instead. But if you have tried connecting the modem directly to the router WAN port but still having issue then you need to contact your ISP.

Dear Marc, It's almost everything (relevant) in the OPs post. Thre are reasons for installing switches in the WAN link(s) - as we see from this example.
Of course, if the router would be MultiGig, the complete thread would be obsolete 8-)
