Cheers guys for the help
I think i should explain it a bit more in my office at work i have only one cat 5 socket on the wall which the main pc is connected to and the ip is a 192 add supplied by dhcp which i asume is comming from the main network in the office i have tried to get more outlets installed but the it dept is very slow and i need to connect 2 more pc's so i tried a router wrt54gs and tried every configuation with no result i could not get it to see the ip add 192 as the ip add in the routers staus page i have one of thease at home which works fine as the ip add is different so the question is will the switch work by connecting it to the outlet on the wall and connect the 3 pc's to it and will the server give ip add to each pc?
