I'm having 3 friends over for a lan party and i need to know what hardware i should have. Am i right in thinking a simple router hub will work? it has 4 slots for ethernet cables so i was hoping it would as long as we all programmed our subnet masks etc. i was just wondering if anyone knows of anything else i need like crossover cables... switches? etc etc or if my 4 slot ethernet router will work...

as it's a router then make sure all computers are set to use DHCP (get their IP addresses automatically) and connect using a normal ethernet cable (no crossover) and it should work fine.
