So it would be like this then:

DSL to router, router to upload port of switch, 3 ports left for computers on router and 5 ports available on switch?

or am I backwards?


Exactly,
And be sure to you get a switch, the price difference today between switches and hubs is almost nothing but the performance gain is very real...

Switches each get the advertised 10/100 connection whereas the hubs have shared badwidth (and the 10/100 speed gets divided between the used ports).
