Current setup: win98se, sprint broadband wireless, netgear r311 router, linksys 5port switch, 2 computers in seperate rooms and want to add a 3rd computer.
From hybrid modem to router internet port---crossover cat 5
From router local port to linksys switch uplink port---crossover
From linksys switch to each computer---straight
I want to add a 3rd computer that is close to the second one which is connected to the linksys switch with a long cable (straight). If I add another linksys switch at the second computer, what cabling would I need?
From linksys switch 1 to linksys switch 2-- use the current straight cable to uplink port or the other port?
From linksys to computer 2---?
From linksys to computer 3---?
Still trying to learn this network stuff, thanks for any info.
