8 port Router

[MyDogSkip]

Hey guys. Just a quickie.

Is it possible to hook a 4 port hub up to a 4 port Router? Its just that i have more than 4 things to plug into my router and i cant find a cheap enough 8 port ADSL Wireless router hub thing.

Cheers!

Yeah, go for a switch rather than a hub though. Ideally get one with an 'uplink' button, or auto-sensing uplink as many are now.

so basicly it will turn my 4 port router into a 7 port then? If so, i shall have a go at picking one up today!

Noticed the other week that Maplin stores are quite cheap for routers/switches - if you're not buying it online.
