Can anyone tell me if I purchased the right thing:
I want to share my T1 Internet access on 2 seperate computers in different rooms.
I think I got the right thing (HUB) - but don't want to open it up (break the seal) in case I made a mistake.
Should I have gone w/ a ROUTER vs. HUB? Not really sure of the difference between the two or what I need.
Here is what I purchased:
Linksys 10/100 5 Port Workgroup HUB

Thanks for any help - I'm not very good with NETWORKS I guess - never been exposed to any before now.
Both my computers have NIC cards - and I have enough CAT 5 cable to connect them both to the HUB - I just hope it's the HUB that I needed.
