By the way you need to make sure the hub/switch you install has its own IP.
A very quick google search led me to a few sites that explained everything you need to know.
Edit:
Unless you're moving large files from one computer to another then any 10/100 mbit hub will work. No point on having a 1gigbit hub for internet if your connection is only 10mb.

Understood, I mean I do do research honestly, but for me Im not the best at grasping the concept its easier if someone can explain it in a different way. but thank you, can anyone give me some good websites to find some? besides amazon and newegg?
