will this work?

There are two ways to accomplish this. However, a switch would be better as it manages the traffic more effectively then a hub and in turn increases performance a bit. But if you already have a hub laying don't bother. 🙂

1. Connect a regular cable from any port on the router to a special uplink port on the switch. (Only certain switches have these.)
2. Connect a cross-over cable from any port on the router to any port on the switch.
 
Yes, that Linksys Switch will work fine. I have one in my rather large network here and it's never given me a problem and is hooked up the way you need it to be. Very reliable switch.
