Quick ethernet switch/router/networking question

[gaggle64]

Hey guys, just a quick question. I have a small wireless internet router, which is fine but it only has the one ethernet port. If I buy a basic 8-port ethernet switch/hub, I can just plug that into the router and have my wired devices all on the internet without the router and the ethernet switch having arguments right?

 

Normally I wouldn't ask, but I've spent far too many hours of my life wrestling with internet routers for various reasons to fork over £20 of my money without making doubly sure.

Yup, any ethernet switch will work fine

Yes you can do that, but I doubt it will work right of the bat.

Ok, thanks guys, that's put me a little at my ease. Routers can just be such temperamental little buggers sometimes.
