Re: USB Transfer slow, need another option.

It's pretty much as simple as that. If your router has an "uplink" port for
connecting another switch or device then all you need is the switch and a
standard Ethernet cable, if not then you need the switch and a crossover
cable. Connect it to your router with the proper cable, then plug computers
into it as you would plug them into the router.
