whats going to be my best set-up
 
Right all moved over to the lakes and have the following dilemma.........

I have the following kit and need to set it up. Ideally I'd like to get the lions share of the bandwidth for gaming as the others wont know that thats whats happening.

This is what we have :-

1x BT yahoo adsl 1 port router (2mbs) ethernet wired up in the loft.
1x Linksys BEFW11S4 4 port 11mbs 802.11b wireless router.
1x Belkin F5D7230-4 4 port 54mbs 802.11b/g wireless router.
1x dynamode 8port 10/100 wired switching hub.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
2x 54mbs wireless centrino laptop's (xphome)
1x 11mbs wireless laptop (stripped down as a bittorent/web server) (xp pro)
1x 11mbs wireless laptop (xp home)

1x my pc with 54mbs wireless card installed. (cant have wired :confused: ) (xp home)
1x spare family pc with 10/100 nic installed. (win me)

---------------------------------------------
also 1 multi function dell printer/scanner, 1 multi function hp printer/scanner.
2x spare older hp inkjets.

I think thats it.

When I set it up I had the adsl set as 192,168.0.1 and the linksys set on 192.168.1.1 now I'm here things are going to be complicated :erm:

Hopefully I may be getting a laptop as well :-)

One for portable gaming.

you just need the modem and belkin 54mb router dont you? all pcs bar one are wireless,from what I can see you do not need the switches,you will still get 11b speeds which as far as I know are fast enough for internet
This is not my area just thought I would add my tuppence worth :D
Could you use your mail server as a print server also??
