Can I use a switch or a hub as a router?
For broadband sharing, no.
Also, what is the difference between a switch and a hub? Long story short, a switch is better for network gaming than a simple hub.
I am only going to be using the hub/switch for one computer and my XBox. If I connect the hub/switch to my cable modem, and then to my computer and XBox, will that work? I am also going to be using the hub/switch for XBox LAN parties with my friends, which is why I want a hub/switch instead of a router because it has more ports.
