Network pros needed!!

So here's the deal.

I want to split my cable connection to 2 computers.

If I do it with a hub, then I need to have a host, correct?

& if i do it with a router then there is no need for a host correct?



Lets say I'm correct, I'll probably go with a hub setup (cause a router is 100$ more..) now what software do I need to setup a host computer? does it suck ram like crazy? Any ups ord downs to this (other that requiering the host to be on)?

I know I could do it with a 3rd networking card and a Y cable, but I dont like this setup.. prefer going hub.




Any comments would be appreciated..


RR I know this is your field, so show me what you're made of!!




Thanks!
