i'm also adding a second router. Although, my situation is a little different. Tell me what you think I should do.

We already have cable broadband going through our router, and into a hub. I am going to be getting a second ip (my dad is worried about network security...whatever) for my system (which is currently not connected).

I'll need a second router, but how should I hook it up? through the first router or should I buy a 2port switch and run that from the modem to the two routers?

my machine will be for gaming and his machines are for business. he wants to keep them seperate.
