sonic, i wasn't trying to make a joke but it is cool. That sort of answered my question. I know about hubs and switches, I just wanted to get everyones opinion. Which is cheaper, Hub or switch. Last I heard they are about the same now. For everyone who was talking about how it was hard to prepare cables, just holla and I will be there for the right price b/c that ain't a thing. No one mentioned roll over or straight though cables (what ever you call it). Isn't that needed to talk to the router and program it. Is that cable in the home networking kit, acid_spectrum? Holla
