[QUOTE="Seraph, post: 188458, member: 3427"] Depends on the brand modem-routers can also accept input from external modems so there is still use for that telekom modem of yours. Performance wise I think you would gain (not sure about the margin) by splitting the functions of the modem and router. One box can do everything but not as good as a box which just does one thing but does it very well. If you're going to use a router its possible to use the same IP for a few days, eg. my router doesn't have an on/off switch so its on all the time. Hub/switch = 1. one machine must be the server which shares the connection to its clients -from another thread its best to assign an IP for all clients so the server knows who is who (not the IP from the ISP). 2. if one machine downloads spyware, virus, etc. its possible the whole network will be infected but can share files between computers. 3. hub = a 100mbps 5-port hub assigns 20mbps per client/port 4. switch = a 100mbps 5-port switch assigns 100mbps per client/switch Router = 1. plug and play, multiple machines from different OS on/off no problems with connections. 2. cannot share files between computers but spyware/virus on one computer generally won't infect the rest. 3. generally routers have hardware firewall and VPN. hope that helps ;) fyi i bought my router (no built in modem) with 5 ports for about 200+- if u not sure about the market pricing ;) [/QUOTE]
