No router, just a pair of "dumb" switches. The server uses the DSL gateway, but sets a different one for the computers on the LAN.
The gateway IP for the internal computers is currently set for the LAN (i.e. xxx.xxx.xxx.1, with workgroup computers as xxx.xxx.xxx.131, 144, etc)
If I reset the internal computer's gateway to the DSL IP, I don't think they'll see each other.
Or am I missing something?

You need to set the default gateway on all internal machines to that of
your gateway; i.e. whatever is serving as your router.
