Networking question

[Edd Rogers]

I have a dsl modem that is hooked to a belkin 4 port router. I have 4
computers hooked up through the router and now I would like to add puter
number 5. Can I use a hub, or network switch, and add it to the end of one
one of these existing lines and add this unit? Or, how would I go about
adding puter # 5, and possibly # 6 later on?

Edd,

You can connect a hub or switch to one of the router ports, and the router will
provide service to any computers connected to the hub / switch.
