Question regarding hardware and cable layout

I'm putting together a plan for a peer to peer network with cable internet access for all computers and I want to verify the layout, as I'm not totally cable standard savvy.
Here's how I envision everything being hooked up.
1. Cable line coming to cable modem.
2. Straight thru cat 5 cable from cable modem to an 8-port router/switch.
3. Straight thru cat 5 cables from router/switch to 4 separate computers. Direct cabling only, I will not be using any wall plates.
The end result is that I need to be able to share the internet access with all three computers, and share a printer hooked up to 1 computer with the other 3.
Anything I missed here gang ?
Thanks
Tracy

Looks Ok except the cable between the MODEM and router. It could be straight thru or crossover depending on the MODEM and router. Most are straight thru. Larry
