From my MFC-Brother printer I have a single USB cable that is running directly from the printer to my PC. It works fine.
I want to keep this existing line running to my PC but I also want to split this and also run another line to a USB port on my Netgear Wireless Router. This way I will have a line running from my printer to both my PC and a USB port on my router.
I purchased a 4 port USB hub but I have a feeling I purchased the wrong thing as it is not working as it should. I guess my question is - what is the difference between a HUB and a splitter? What should I get to accomplish what I mentioned above? Thanks
