Simple Network Question

Laudanum · 06-01-2003, 12:00 PM

I have one ethernet connection but I want to be able to use it for several computers. I dont need the computers themselves to communicate with each other - just so that all of them can access the internet at the same time. What should I buy? A hub, router, switch, etc?
Thanks

I'm going to assume you have broadband.

Get a router.
