Suppose computers on your home office network are connected to a single hub but now you need to expand the network you purchase another hub assuming you use a straight through cable what port on a hub?
If there's a WAN port on your hub, use that (If your x-port hub actually has x+1 ports, chances are the extra port is actually a WAN port). Otherwise, you probably can't connect that hub to another hub using a standard patch cable and will need a crossover cable. Some hubs will allow you to switch a port between normal and WAN mode, however (I believe some Trendnet hubs have this feature?), so you might want to check first. This is usually a hardware feature - normal hubs usually are not advanced enough to contain software interfaces for a browser to interact with)
