How hard is it really? I don't want to give him any answers, but come on....

If you're talking about any network with around 20 computers, it's just stupid simple....

I would do this.
Internet>Router>Hub A>computers/Hub B>computers

BUY ALL CISCO/LINKSYS, it is the easiest to set up. Buy some cheap HP or Dells. Set up encryption for the router and times when the router will automatically shut off [and I would recommend a wireless router because if someone wants to bring there laptop in] Be sure you have a few extra ethernet ports open

1 wireless router (use G, it's most common)
3 5port Hubs/switches
10 computers
XP would be the best

Send me a private message if more help is needed. I could always tell you more...

DON"T USE STEADY STATE!!! It sucks!!! For networking help, use Network Magic at networkmagic.com/download I would buy it since it is for a business. It has great tools. Install it on the main computer.

Hi mate, Once you have set up your computers on the network which for 10 computers is pretty simple i would recomend running smart launch it extremly secure and would make your life a lot easier that would run on most modern os. and for an internet connection i would recomend makeing sure you get it through cable/dsl fibre optic cable. its faster anyway and runs well through a linksys router but you should be ok with a network swithch and run a server you need to run a server on smartlaunch anyware
