Hey I was wondering a quick question. I currently am running a Netgear RT314 Router that has 4 ports in a home network. I just recently managed to get another computer and have no more empty ports. I do have a little lynksys 5 port hub and was wondering if I could use this to add my 5th computer to the Network and essentially my High Speed connection? Is this possible?

If so can someone tell me how I would go about setting it up...would I have to have my cable coming from port one plug into the Hub uplink?
 
Put one end of your Cat5 cable into one of your Netgear router's ports (not the WAN) and the other end into the Linksys hub.
