Yes, cable would slow down a bit, and you probably won't even see a difference with DSL. You'd do it just as you do now, except with a router w/8 ports...assuming you have an external Ethernet modem, I can't recall what you currently use.
I have the phone line going in to my ext. Ethernet DSL modem; the RJ45/CAT5 cable from it going to the rear of my gateway router; and the ports on the front of the router going to the NIC in each PC with an RJ45 cable. -Clint God Bless Us All Clint Hamilton, Owner Want to exchange links with us? http://OrpheusComputing.com � ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeff Dougherty" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Can some advise the best connection for networking up to 8 PC's? I would assume using cable modem would really slow the connection speed, but would DSL also slow it down just as much, or at all?
