weird disconnecting prob dealing with my router

[Weirdy]

question

 

if you have a router and hub, can you set one of the inputs on the hub to be a node which is also connected to the router to connect more computers to the internet with the router?

 

for example

[router]
[0000]
| | ||_ _
          |
[hub]   | 
[0000] |
      |__|

If you mean hooking the router up to the hub via the uplink port, it should work.....in theory. It's just like hooking up your cable/dsl modem in that way, and having multiple machines be assigned unique IP adresses.

 

The more I think about it, the more it makes sense that it should work.

Would the linksys be connected via USB ?

I used to have a alot of issues with USB ethernet hubs.

yeah, that's what I meant. Ok, just wondering just incase it ever came to the point where all the input slots on the router would be full
