Everything said is correct...
But I would like to add that the firewall is the biggest selling point of using these routers... The firewall protects the computers in your network from people on the Internet hacking into them...
All 3 routers 1, 4 and 8 port support up to a maximum of 253 users or computers connected to them. Because they also have a built-in DHCP Server, they will give each computer an IP address by setting the TCP/IP properties to - obtain IP Address automatically/use DHPC Server to obtain IP address...
Which one you will need to buy depends on how many computers you will want to connect to the Internet. Routers are usually more expensive per port then hubs, so you can just add a hub when you need more ports instead of buying a whole new router.
