Noob issues!

paramedic233
Okay, I've been trying to set up this UTM for the better part of a week. I have a very angry, frustrated wife who is on my case about me trying to keep the Internet clean for the family! Anyways....
Current setup is the following:
DSL modem
Linksys wrt-1900ac with 2.4 and 5 enabled, giving us multiple wireless networks to use.
Off of the router I have an 8 port network switch to give more wired clients.
My PC

I tried placing the UTM after the DSL modem, and it started knocking everyone offline, hence angry, frustrated wife. Restarted DSL modem so it could grab new MAC address, and after many angry looks disconnected the UTM. 

How can I place the UTM so it filters all of the traffic? What do I need to address in the modem and the router?

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am cross eyed from reading this and that!

Thank you.

    I thank you.
    Still waiting to hear back from Fairpoint to bridge my modem. Apparently it had to be escalated to a higher service level. Grrrr
    I tried without bridging the modem, and it was a miserable failure. Add to that my wife coming home early, and now I am grounded until I leave for work later.
