Ideal for dial-up Internet connections, these Switches provide the backbone for sharing e-mail, printers, files, multiplayer games, and hard drives. One computer connects to the modem and the Switch, to become the Internet access point for all your connected computers. Using Internet Connection Sharing Software, you can now share your dial-up Internet access with up to seven additional computers-four for the 5-Port Network Switch. Expanding your network is easy-simply add more Switches through the featured uplink port. Belkin 8-Port Fast Ethernet Network Switch F5D5131-8
