Actually I could have tested that before
It works. As I understood I connected the wan port to the pc ethernet, had all the settings as you wrote (except the primary DNS - there I took the ip showing up in the usb wifi dongle settings I got from the ipconfig request) and tested wifi over the router with my phone. It works perfectly. Thanks a lot for your help and advice - lesson learned - the routers wan and the pc ethernet port have to be in the same address range.
Now I just have to figure out how to share my drives...
Edit:
the LAN connection (to my own router) has to be in the homenetwork to be able to access shared drives on the pc over the router, right?
The problem is that the lan connection auto-set itself to public network and i cannot change that.
I have a proper user account with password in Windows (as far as i know thats necessary to be able to access data over the network)
