 a 6+ port hub, with a BNC (coax) uplink port should do it.
 JG> Or apparently a 'router'(?) can do the job.
 JG> Which is better? What's a 'hub'?
 JG> How do you hook them up?
 a router can get expensive, but since a network running on cat 5 cables
 requires a hub anyways, and many of them have BNC (coax) uplink ports,
 it would probably be advisable to use a hub.
