Just question about ethernet switch

[Foxrac]

Does will work?

Linksys is fucking asshole because not compatible with Xbox Live due unable to communicate with players and not work with VP, also I cannot get VP but my router is new and wireless G.

My Xbox 360 is wired to router, also same with my computers and other few computers are wireless.

I had noticed that some gamers did call Linksys and they don't help with network issues.

D-Link - 5-Port 10/100 Ethernet Switch - DES-1105

Here's suggestion.. get extra ip addresses (of course not free) for VP and Xbox Live and use Router for computer connection. so that means you just need 3 ip addresses. 1 is part of your high speed account then 2 ip address can be used for fee (per monthly basis)

vp connected to ethernet switch port with it's own ip address
xbox connected to ethernet switch port with it's own ip address
your computers and other computers connect wirelessly to router which is connected to ethernet switch.

if your provider is Cox then each ip address is about 6 bucks I don't know the $ for other providers.

The cheapest and least problematic way to do this is for the long run is to get rid this router and buy one that is on the XBox Live compatability list. Routers are inexepensive these days. I have include a list of compatable routers along with incompatable routers. (Netgear Wireless looks good)
