So I am a little confused by this. I have a Asus rt-n56u and I just plugged in a cisco 4 port switch to it so I am setup as ISP>Router>Switch. Now the odd thing is when I plug in the switch my wifi goes to a crawl to the point that nothing can browse with it. This asus router is a duel-band and if I connect to the 5Mhz it work just fine however when I go with the 2.5 the wifi basically stops working. I don't really want to use the 5Mhz because the range is bad and can't go everywhere in my house where my wireless devices are. I this a QoS issue or is the 2.5 band just full and can't support any more bandwidth on it? Would love some feedback on this!

DL Inssider and have a look, there is a free version. This will give you some indication of congestion on the 2.4 a 5 Ghz bands. With this information you may be able to improve things by changing channel. This shouldn't be altered by plugging in a wired switch however so there may be other issues. What model of switch is it please.
