Cisco 2524 connecting two RJ45-based LANs

| Sorry if this question is really bad, but I have no real experience
with setting up Cisco routers for use on a LAN like this.
I have a Cisco 2524 I bought to train with. It has the standard 10mbps
aux port and a serial port (S1). It also has a 4-wire 56/64k CSU/DSU
in the first slot (S0?). Nothing is set up, but I want it to route
traffic between two networks in my home; one is for our family
computers, the other is a training lab.
My question is, how do I connect the RJ45-based networks to the router
ports? Currently both networks are using Belkin switches, which in
turn each connect to a port on a Belkin DSL router. All three network
devices have only RJ45 ports.
What I'd like to see is both networks come in off their Belkin switch
through different ports into the 2524 router, and then have internet
traffic leave through a third port, connected to the belkin DSL router
(which I want to keep using since it supports my PPoE connection).
Thanks for any tips, I'm a little lost as to how to approach this.

The 2524 only has one Ethernet port. The serial ports are modular and
you have the 56/64Kb CSU. The AUX and Console ports are used to gain
access to the router through serial devices (like a modem and your PCs
serial port)

Since the 2524 cannot handle VLANs, you're only option is to introduce a
hub in between the router and the two switches. You can then use
secondary address on your router's Ethernet port. ie
switch1 switch2
192.168.1.0 192.168.2.0

----- HUB --------
|
|
Router E0
int e0
ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0
ip address 192.168.2.1 255.255.255.0
ip route-cache same-interface
no shut
