he has a broadband connection, so he dont dial up,
he would need an NAT client and windows xp dont have one pre-installed.
Hubs shoot packets out all ports becuase they dont know what IP addresses or MAC addresses are and it hs no sense or orginization. they are dumb devices now served mostly as repeaters.
since they dotn know what IP and MACs are they just aimlessly shoot all ports causing lots of collisions. one HUGE collision domain!!!
since switches have smaller ones and routers have very small ones.speed degradation does not happen.
he was complaining about his speed, and speed is king. routers arent very expensive.
