Router and HUB?

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)


Posted by: GeForce_4_

Alright so me and my friends want to LAN this weekend

I have a DLINK 4 port router,


and we're gonna be 5-6 people LANing, the problem we have, is that we only have 4 ports.


Can my friend bring his router, and connect it to one of my ports?

How do we ports?

A hub? aNother ROUTER?

Thnks!

GeForce_4_,
You can just plug the hub into one of the ports on the router. Should work fine.

You could use another router, but you would have to disable all routing features and NAT on that router... if you know how to do this, it's very simple... otherwise you plug in a switch to the router on one of the internet ports...

Just like USB hubs: plug 'em into eachother.

routers != USB hubs.... Switches=USB Hubs.
