Yes! If there are enough computers on the network that you can't afford to
give them all a port on a switch, designate like 4 computers to a hub and
have all the hubs go to the switch. I had 10 computers sharing an internet
connection linked together by 3 10BT hubs, and when someone started to File
Share, that internet connection was so slow pings sometimes timed out.
