Hi
I'd like to extend my wired (cat5) network. Currently I have a combined wireless and wired 54g lynksys router of which is not ideally situated to use wirelessly, nor do i really want to move it to a higher position which would reveal all the cables and the cat5 cables to the room are chased in to the wall.
How can I best extend my network using a wired\wireless switch? Primarilly I want to extend this to my lounge for multmedia purposes with the highest possible bandwidth for video transfer.
I'm not sure how switches work and how they're connected, just that they're better than hubs for transfering full bandwidth to each PC.
Thanxxx
