Hi crowdirt, sorry I know this is off-topic but since you're such a wiz in networking, could you please tell me if I should buy a Linksys 4-port router or just a 4-port switch for sharing my broadband? With the router, I want to be able to disable the NAT firewall so that it doesn't block file sharers, ftp ul/dl, chat, etc. But if I get the switch and it doesn't have a WAN port for my cable modem, I guess I'll need a second netcard to use DHCP (so that Road Runner sees only one ip). Any advice?

Thanks alot...
