Ive always used 3COM for hubs and modems. I need to buy a new hub what hub what would you suggest for a network of about 20 computers?

Thank you,
Jason
 
hello..

just a thought.

the price difference between a hub and a switch is relatively small (unlike before)...and so, i suggest that you buy yourself a 24-port switch for your 20 workstations.
 
You can find plenty of 24-port 10/100 switches on ebay for under $100. Not long ago I picked up a Nortel Networks Baystack 350-24T for $40.
