I just a noob geek that has enough knowledge to be dangerous, but not 1337. I was look at my network setup. To my horror i maxed out all the Ethernet ports on my router is full and I'm too cheep to by wifi card for my computers. i used a switch i have but its doesn't work well when i run it after my router.
So i was looking a old pc as a firewall and use the switch to get most of my computer running but i need the wifi to so put the router after. But that is no fun, so i was thing if i could trun a pc in to a tcp/ip sever/ router and use the switch to as a way to share the like to the gateway(the srever/ router).
Now i have no idea from there where to go from there. I am all for trying something new and learn new stuff too. But I have to keep it dirt cheep and have blocking feture cause i have younger siblings that are a little out there. All ideas are welcome to!
