Correct, you need both the hub and Sygate. Sygate breaks the internet address up into several. This is required to run several computers at the same time. Don't know what an upload port is. Just get the Linksys 5 port. That's all you need. S.W.

Computer Discount Warehouse: Great source for info and I hear it is a good place to shop on-line (I don't have a credit card).

Share multimedia, electronic mail transfer, files, printers, and more at blazing 10Mbps speeds. Five 10BASE-T ports make the installation easy: plug a twisted-pair cable between the hub and your computer and go! Connecting more than five computers together? No problem! Link up to three Workgroup Hubs together with the built-in uplink port for fast and flexible expandability when you need it.
