Re: Campus wont let us have routers

In my building some idiot hooked up a router incorrectly and it acted a dhcp server to anyone on the same switch. Basically this meant everyone on our floor couldn't access the internet for a good 3 hours. Fortunatly they weren't smart enough to actually password protect the device so while it took 3 hours for campus IT to shut off the jack it only took me 3 minutes to get the MAC and IP for router to the right people.

Anyways... I should probably get on subject.. so then any switch/hub will work but you probably want to buy at least a 10/100 switch which if you get it off newegg.com is currently only $25 minus a $10 rebate makes it $15 plus shipping.

or you could just run to best buy and spend $30 - $50 on one if you hate online shopping.
