Thanks Rathji!, I think I just solved it. I need to only use the LAN ports, and not the modem/internet port, as an internet input on the Belkin.

So disable wifi, dhcp, and set router ip to an ip on the network (as mentioned above). My mistake was not plugging internet from the SMC LAN 1 into Belkin LAN 1. Downside is I only have 3 hard ports now, but that is enough.

Thanks again!
