It sounds like you need to enable Network Bridging along with the Internet Connection Sharing to get the home network functioning. I don't know if your router will work this way though. Normally you'd use a switch for something like this. According to this article [windowshelp.microsoft.com] ICS won't work with a router, but your setup is somewhat unique.

Here's some info about ICS and Network Bridge setups:
