If the cafe has only provided one IP then that won't work. You have made your machine a gateway, 192.168.0.1. The cafe is allready the gateway.

I've never done this, so I'm just assuming, but it's worth a try unless somebody knows better.
Put things back as they were and run the connection wizard. Once the net is on, fit the new card, attach it to the switch, connect the other PCs to the switch, right click the connection icon for the new card (you may have to go into network settings and tick the box to enable the icon to show) and select "bridge this network".
Run the connection wizard on the other machines and see what happens.
