Forget the WiFi on your router, and deploy dedicated wireless access point(s) - so all the LAN and WLAN traffc does flow over the switch.
I suppose I could do that, be more money, was looking to complete a project with a pi without that much spent. But it looks like I can put the switch in between the router and the modem, as long as the WLan is still connected to the router. not sure how I will access the management panel with that set up.

Thanks man!
