Simply leave the switch out and connect directly via cable. Please note: If you are using halfway recent network adaptors, they will automatically adapt to the direct cable link. If they do not, you will need to use a crossover network cable. see here for more information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_crossover_cable
regards and again, I doubt that the problem is switch related, given that the switch is unmanaged or correctly managed.
