There's an obvious problem with this approach - you can't tell the link state
of your uplink, so thus it would probably be wise to spend the extra money
and get a managed switch of some kind so that you can monitor your ISP
connection over time.
i think an older managed switch is the best choice for me here based on
what folks have suggested. thx for the replies everybody =)
