Hi all,
The situation is that I have three devices (a printer, a laptop, and a desktop) that require ethernet connectivity. However, my uni room has only the one wall socket.
I have seen some £5ish splitters but after reading around for a bit it seems these don't do what I want to do, so the remaining option is a switch such as this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Netgear-5-Po.../dp/B0007SQEQ4
1. Is this suitable?
2. Is there a better way for under £40?
3. With the switch can I LAN the laptop and desktop or would I need a router for that?
Thanks in advance.
