Linksys + Hub???

I have a Linksys router set up and have used up all 4 ports. I need a fifth computer hooked up. I have a hub. Is there anything that can be done to hook up my fifth computer?

Thanks!
 
Run a standard Cat5 cable from the uplink port on the router to a standard port on the hub, or vice-versa. Since the uplink on the router is shared with port 1, the system that is currently plugged in to it will also have to be moved to the hub.

Thanks guys.......It is 10/100. I had tried hooking from router uplink to hub uplink before and it didn't work. Now I have it from router normal port to hub uplink and it works like a charm! Thanks again!
 
well it's good that it's at least 10/100...

It's not the equivalent of a switch but, oh well 🙂

You'll be fine with it...
