Are there two IP addresses that are required for this to work?  I don't know what to do.  This worked when we had DSL and we've just switched to Comcast cable internet and now it's not working.  I don't want to call Comcast because they are no help.

Yes, you need a different IP address for each computer and so a router after
the modem instead of a switch. You appear to need help from someone who is
literate in networking, so if it is not from Comcast then someone else.
