Hi folks just a wee quick query, I have wireless network throughout the house, my son has a pc and xbox360 in his bedroom, the 360 is hard wired through the router, is there sucha thing as a hub or port, that would allow me to run two things off his lan cable so the pc and 360 would be both hard wired.

don't know if it helps but the utp cable has 8 wires and only 4 of them are used on a 100Mb LAN, you can use one cable with two RJ45 connectors, that means use 4 wires of the utp cable for each connector at both sides. the working pins in the connector are 1,2,3,6 when watched in this position http://www.bogdanturcanu.ro/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/pini-mufa-rj45.png
