Re: Your home network
Mines really simple too
Shub1 (in modem mode) connected to a dlink DIR -615 router
1 ethernet to my pc, 1 to the kids x-box next to the tv
Everything else connects wirelessly
Daughter PC via USB dongle,
4 smartphones
1 chromecast
1 Philips smart tv
3 tablets
I wouldn't like to be in a pre wireless world now I must admit.
Only thing I'd change right now, is perhaps the router for something a bit further reaching. (I can just about get a signal in all of the house, though it's pretty weak at the edges & far enough into the garden to be able to use my phone on a Bluetooth connection to stream from Google music ok.
Can't see the point for any switches or gigabyte hubs etc when there's only one pc hard-wired in my house. (which isn't a mansion clearly as a 615 covers all the rooms)
I like to Keep It simple Stupid (KISS) when possible.
