I hope to start hooking up a mix of hardware very soon
and have over the
last week picked up a Linksys Fast Ethernet 5-Port Workgroup Hub model
FEHUB05W ($2.92), a Linksys EtherFast cable/DSL Router model BEFSR41
($20), and a Katron 10BASE-T Ethernet hub 8 Plus model Hub/8 ($10) and
now have tofigure which to use?
You got some good deals. The BEFSR41 is a switch with a built in firewall
and DHCP server. Setup is web based. Does either hub have a 10B2 connection?
Here's how I would set it up....
Internet-----BEFSR41--------HUB---------10B2
