Ics... what's your setup? - Router or hub?? which is better?

Router/Switch is the way to go. I think they all handle DHCP which is required by most cable companies. The first router I bought did not have this capability and thusly would not work with Cablevision. My new Linksys kicks ass. I almost forget the thing is there, that's just how little problems I have with the damn thing. It's a router with a 4-port switch, and setup was pretty much hook it up, turn it on, and go surfing. Buy.com has it for $59.82 (after rebate).
