I have a Netopia R9100 router with Roadrunner cable. The hub built into the Netopia is a 10BaseT which works fine for internet access but I uplinked the router to a Netgear 100BaseTX switch. This gives REALLY good speeds across the 5 user network I have for file transfers and printing. All machine can play online games on different internet servers at once. If the server is fast the game is fast. If the server is laggy then the game will be too. A router with a fat pipe is livin large.
