Hello everyone,
You can understand from the title that I have no technical details about this.
In where I live I have only one ethernet line. That is regulated by the facility I'm living in. I am using it for my main computer and use hotspot for my other devices. I do not know if they can block my access if I try to multiply it using a switch.
What do you guys think?
depends on the rest of the setup... If you're behind a router that has it's own DHCP server, you can usually just install a switch. If not, a router has to be used, the WAN port connected to your ethernet cable, the LAN ports for your internal network. Offcourse, it has to be setup correctly.
When you connect your pc with the ehternet outlet, does your current ip address start with 192.168.x.x or 10.0.x.x? In that case, you're probably behind a router, and you can probably just use a switch...
Please notice the word PROBABLY. The person that has setup your network might have used things like MAC address filtering, static ip's only,... in this case you'll still have to use a router instead of a switch
