If you don't already have a hub the best way to go (and in some ways a
better product) is the Linksys DSL/Cable Router. I don't have the Model #
on me right now, but it has a built in 5-port switch/hub. You don't need
this if you already have a hub of some sort. It goes for around $140-160.
I saw it reviewed at www.arstechnica.com and then went to some ZDNet page I
found on www.google.com that listed both items and allowed a price search at
about 20 online locations.
