This advice is somewhat anachronistic, as modern equipment should have

hmm. Is there an easy way to tell a crossover cable from a straight one?
I've never really had to worry about it before except in one specific

It would. However, I only have a router and it seems like a bit of a
waste to buy a 4/8/16 port switch to accommodate only one more device.

Hi -
Shimi's solution will work - use a cross-over cable, though, in order to
connect the switches together.
Hypothetically, you should be able to connect multiple computers to the same
network cable - that is, wire 2 connectors, in series, at one end. This
would give you a "hub" on that segment,

I'm running an ADSL modem/router with a 192.168.2.x network (for
historical reasons) and have allocated static addresses to all of the
static devices, and a pool of DHCP addresses for devices which ask for it
