Before I purchased one, is there any particular type I need? Would a cheap one off ebay just as good as a cheap one off an online retailer?
Just to make sure I got this right. Say I have 5 rooms that are wired with cat5 and ready to go.
The order will go modem > router > patch panel > cat5 leading to each room?
I'm guessing since I will more than likely have a 4 port router each one of those ports will be going into the rear of the patch panel and on the other side will be the cable leading to each room. Correct?
