Cable installed - now my hub has no connection the router/modem - what do I need to buy?
- by bcmcfc
My previous setup was as follows:
[modem/router]------[switch]+------ [pc1]
+------ [pc2]
I've just moved and had cable installed and I no longer have the option of running a lengthy LAN cable from the router to the switch to provide network and internet access to the two PCs.
The cable company provided 2 wireless N USB adapters.
What do I need to buy to plug into where in order to restore the network to its previous state?
PC1 dual boots Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12. PC2 runs Debian 6.
Edit:
USB adapters - Netgear WNDA3200
Switch - TP-Link TL-SF1008D 8 port Ethernet switch
Cabling - various patch cables cat5e rj45
Modem/Router - pretty standard cable company job - wireless
Intention is something like-
[modem/router] --wifi-- [some-new-hardware or perhaps to pc1] ----[switch]---[pc1/2]
