Well first, I had a typo, that should have read eth1 for management not eth2. 
I'll go back and edit it to be clear.
Well, depends on your needs. I would actually use one of the switch0 interfaces (eth2, eth3, or eth4) to plug into the external switch. That way everything on the external switch and everything plugged into the other 2 of ports of the switch0 interface would all be part of the same network.
If you plug the external switch into eth1, then it will be on a different network segment/subnet than the network configured for the switch0 interface. And some devices wouldn't see eachother without some extra work/software on the router.
As for the br0 interface, you want to just delete it. The only info from it you will move over to the switch interface is the address. I believe to delete the bridge in the config tree interface, you would click on the "bridge" folder to expand it. This should show you a list of the bridges configured. Each one (in your case, the only one) should have a "Remove" button next to it.
Then under the switch0 interface section you want to set the address to 192.168.1.1/24. You also want to be sure that the "bridge-group" folder is empty. Same thing for eth1, you want to be sure the "bridge-group" entry is empty.
If you walkthrough the config I posted previously, the lines should match up with entries in the config-tree. You can compare them and if something you have in your config doesn't appear in the one I posted, then you should be safe to delete or blank it. But, you can make that judgement call. You just want to be sure not to have anything for the bridge remaining.
One note of caution. You will want to use either the serial console or to remove eth1 from the bridge and configure it on a separate network first, then connect your laptop to this network and then make the other changes. This is so that if something goes wrong with the other changes you don't loose access to the router. There is a chance that if something went wrong while commiting the changes you could loose access to the router. You would then need to use the serial console or factory reset it to get back in. Just FYI as I've done this to myself more than once.

Im going to take a guess on what Im supposed to do... Here are the screen shots.
So you want me to take the config info from br0, delete it, and then enter it into switch0? both under the "Interface" area in the Config Tree?
Should I try to do this through the config tree or through the CLI, I read on some of the post by other people that the changes that they made didnt work sometimes when the used the Config tree.
Copy The Configuration Information from previeous Screen shot to here?
I think that I will just manage router wirlessly in case I want to use the Eth2 for something in the future. for eth1 i have connected a switch and moved the TV and PS4 to it. will that change any of the configurations sugested?
I havnt removed the settings from( Interfaces>bridge>br0 ) will these all need to be blank along with the other changes in switch0? Or do they need to be copyed to swich0, because i dont see a directory called ( bridge>br0 ) in switch0.

Awsome Thanks evildog! got it all working. I deleted all the config info and then transfered the address to the switch0 interface. and that basicly fixed everything!
I think the wizard messed it up from using that for the initial setup it put all the ports into a bridge set up. thanks for helping out man.
These are my speeds now, way better then the 86-100Mbps
