I'm looking for a minimum 4 port Router/Switch/Hub to share an adsl connection (through Billion BPC-711 ethernet router/modem) and a colour laser ethernet printer (Xerox Phaser 360) between 2 pc's (winXP and win98) on a home-office network.

I also need one NIC for the win98 machine.

If you have something that might meet my needs, please get in touch on usenet(at)berlinit.com (obviosly replace the (at) with @no-spam ). Email only replies please - I wont receive your reply if you respond only to NG.

Also, I have a Efficient Networks Speedstream USB modem that i might consider trading for something like:-
Netgear FR314 Cbl/DSL Firewall/Router/Switch or NETGEAR RP614 cable/DSL Web Safe router gateway
Cheers,
Greg
PS: I'm located in Melbourne, Inner East. Can pick up from nearby or work out other payment options.

Its the same thing. Just buy a new power supply when it arrives. Upload the Australian firmware and Wooosh.
