Is this home network layout okay?

[bryan09]

Soon I will be changing service provider to SingTel for my home network. As such, they will be providing me a modem cum router that has 4 ports. As far as I want to make use of one router only, I think based on my home layout it is not possible.

As this is my first time going to work with 2 routers, are there anything I need to take note of? Configurations? Is the above network layout the best I can layout?

why u wan to use 2 router in your case?

[whaleshark87]

1 modem router for internet connection and a switch will do liao ma, unless you using 2nd router to limit internet access.

its up to personal to how to configure their network.

for your network, it looks alrite.

can use the dgl-4300 to act as switch, just dun plug to the wan/internet ports can liao. the rest looks ok.

This is logical diagram right???

Ur indivdual rooms have cables already laid? Or they are simply laptops?? If laptops might as well use wireless...

If your objective is simply jus to use exisiting bought equipment, then this is good enough...

[bytesize]

Just use wireless method for each of the PC or laptop will do.

All my cables are already in place. The above is my existing network with StarHub MaxOnline. But will be changing to SingNet by Friday so they providing me a modem cum router. So I making plans for it currently. So above is what I drawn out asking if it's okay.

Great I have made the switch from MaxOnline to SNBB. Now that I am on SNBB, I've got no idea how come StarHub will still have customers. :D
