Ok, I wanted to post a follow-up regarding the home-networking plans I
mentioned earlier. Just to recap, I have cat-5 routed through my home,
going from each outlet (about 18) to the basement. I was looking for
the best way to have them all accessible to the internet (via dsl/cable
modem). Also
Please ignore my last post about redoing the map.
If you want a full firewall then you will probably want to have
a Linux/Mandrake machine in place of the Linksys. The firewall/
Linux box must do NAT. If you are just dealing with a standard

Did you consider using Cat 6 cable instead of Cat 5?
I'll confirm the above I've got a site with 9 - 15 boxes behind a
linksys firewall/router/wireless box without a hiccup. (the number
changes with laptops.) The point here is ... don't swat flies with
sledgehammers. I know a guy that has

I assume you ment RJ-45.
All you need is a switch that will handle all the network lines that
go into the basement. If you have cable/DSL for internet then you
should get a Linksys Cable/DSL router(you might want to get a wireless
which also has RJ-45.
The setup would look like this:
So just a normal switch (say 20-port) connected to the cable/dsl
router? What role does the router play? Is it for use as a firewire?

Yes a Linksys does act as a basic firewall.
This also allows you to run a private subnet behind the Linksys and
all out going traffic will take on the address of the Linksys (NAT).
You can setup one machine to be in the DMZ (not blocked by the Linksys).
Linksys allows address 2-10 to port
I actually left something out of the below map (see update).

I recently did some renovation on my house. While all of the walls were
open, I had the electrician wire cat5, rj-46, and voice cable to every
room in the house, and routed directly to the basement.
I need some help coming up with a strategy for setting up the home
networking. Should I get a
