The switch will take care of the connections you need, there is no routing as they are all on the same IP networks. What is the switch type? Some are set to have no connections between ports unless you configure them.

The switch should sit behind the router, i.e cable modem <---> linksys <---->switch. It will sort out the different speeds of each NIC as long as it is 1G capable.
