Had more time to read the reply this morning. The main reason for having two of them is physical separation. The connection between the two involves about 100' of cable. All the ports in the world on a single device wouldn't help there. :) I'm just trying to achieve a single simple network...

The DSL/WAN switch is in gateway mode and is the DHCP server. The "internal" switch is in router mode and has DHCP disabled.
