Hi,
I work at a school which has a very simple network, so each computer in the network has an IP like: 192.168.... If i want to have two computers where I only have one port, can I get a gateway (or router...not sure what they're called) which has additional ports?

The reason I'm asking is that usually those devices (gateways/routers) define another private network (192.168..), and it's getting to a network that already is private (the one I mentioned above), so will that be ok??

I'm quite new in this area, and would really appreciate if somebody could help me.

Thank you.
Sonya
