He plugs his cable modem (I am sure it would work with DSL also) into the uplink port, and has two networked computers which are plugged into the hub as well. He is able to use the internet on both computers simultaneously.</p> Wed, 29 Nov 2000 23:59:05 +0000 Rob Pengelly comment 1074809 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/server-management/need-advice-webserver-setup#comment-1074807 <p>Hi</p> <p>using old 486's was my plan, I was told they performed very well as web servers using linux. If I use one as a router then do i need another one as the server or could i just run the web server software (apache) off the router ? do you have any router software to recommend ?</p> <p>I heard of hubs that are sold to share internet connections.. are those considered router ? those are pretty cheap (40$)</p> <p>thanks !</p> Wed, 29 Nov 2000 23:35:08 +0000 slaviolette comment 1074807 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net
