Multiple Hubs?

[Max Bolingbroke]

Hi

I have a slight problem with a home network. Basically, we currently have a
layout like this:

Room One:

--------
| PC 1 |---------|
-------- |
|
Room Two: |
|
------- |
| Hub |----------|
-------
|
Other PCs

But now I am getting another PC for room one, and I cannot lay another cable
from room one to the hub (don't ask why). So I wondered if I could install a
hub in room one, connect the two PCs to it and then connect the new hub to
the other one in room two, so they share the same cable. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance!

Yes, as long as there's an uplink port on the hub in Room 2 or you use a
crossover cable to daisy-chain the hubs.
