several months ago, i bought this RJ45 1x2 Ethernet Connector Splitter 1 to 2 sockets Internet Cable Cat 5 6 - Newegg.com
to try to create both a cabled connection for 2 computers, and a wi fi connection for the kids. i have tried several times to connect this up, but the only way i can get the system to work is by running the cables thru the router first, then i can split the cabled computers. i want to be able to turn off the wi fi at night, because the kids have gotten up after their bed time on school nights, and then its hard to get them back to sleep. because their minds are running at 60mb/sec. did i buy the wrong thing to use in order to do what i want?
