Exactly. The price difference is minimal, the performance difference is not (Sample Benchmark: LAN gaming. On my 24-port hub my ping is in the 30-ish range, on my 16-port switch my ping never goes above 10).

Just run a regular CAT5 from the router to the switch and in most cases you'll be set - connect other machines to the switch and they'll work just fine. Hasn't failed me yet. Probably it's not PERFECT Network topology, but for home networks there's no reason to go extreme.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
