connection sharing between routers

cherrio · 2004-08-27 11:07:55

I have Eircoms 4 port DSL mode/router, but I have 6 computers to connect to the net. What I want to know is can I just connect another 8 or 16port router directly to the DSL modem/router? Can any one suggest a suitable router from www.komplett.ie that would do the job? thx.

You could just get a hub/switch and plug it into your existing router. This one would do the job:
