I just had direcway two way installed. The modem connects to my pc via usb. I would like to network 3 comps running win2k pro I am allowed max 4 comps on this service. since my computer must be on for the others to use ics which would be better switch or hub? the installer said i should use a router but he did'nt know how to hook it up. I cannot find any routers that take usb input, anyone know how?.......
any help would be appreciated thanks.

Does the host PC require DirecPC to be installed? Perhaps you can contact Draytek (http://www.draytek.com.tw/) to find out if their Vigor 2200 USB Router (http://www.practicallynetworked.com/reviews/draytek_vigor2200usb.asp) supports DirecWay.

Well drayteks Vigor 2200 does not support Satellite option at this time but will sometime later this year. So I will go with switch for now and get the router at a later date.
Thanks for the info anyway it was worth looking into.
